have created topos of algebras over a monad
I added a paragraph in the literature, justifying and having a link to vectoid.
Thanks, that in fact gives me finally a helpful way to think about vectoids. I didn’t appreciate this point before.
I have added the statement that is a sheaf topos if is and is not only lex but also accessible. I guess I can see this (will try to spell out all the proves for the entry eventually). But where is this discussed in the literature?
Nikolai Durov’s Classifying Vectoids and Generalisations of Operads has just (May 16, 2011) appeared in arxiv.
So I guess the Russian can be taken out of the algebrad page.
Thank you very much Rod.
But what do you mean Russian version “taken out” ?? The Russian version
is the published version and it is the original. The original should never be removed from the record.
P.S. I did not put before the Russian version of the paper though to the page (now I did). I have the copy for a year or so, but I posted just the conference part as the paper did not appear publicly at the time. I now added the publication data. Conference digest could stay as well.
I have now also added the reference to Nikolai Durov.
By “Russian taken out” I was just referring to the Russian text abstract included in the entry.
I was also wondering if the arxiv version is not merely a translation of the Trudy MIAN vol 273 version but also included new material since you say it is a year or so old, and no date is given for its publication.
However I just checked and Vol 272 is the latest issue so in some since the Russian version hasn’t been published yet.
Is there a difference between the two versions?
[ UGH. I don’t seem able to have an ’a’ tag include ’option_lang=eng’ for ’Vol 272’ above ]
The Russian abstract is the abstract of the talk, not the paper. The paper has been written a year ago, accepted some time ago and got the issue number which is yet not printed, but the issue belongs to this year. The English version which I suppose hasn’t got much difference from the Russian version will be published next year, in the English edition.

I am also wondering this. The Elephant only gives a passing mention.
EDIT: only another passing mention, but enough to construct a proof I think. Richard Garner’s paper on ionads mentions that the category of coalgebras for a lex comonad is locally presentable (hence a Grothendieck topos) iff the comonad is accessible.
I performed some edits and added some material at topos of algebras over a monad.
I’d like to propose that this page be renamed to topos of coalgebras over a comonad, which is what it’s mostly about. The material on algebras is adequately covered in other pages that are referred to.
Given an accesible left exact comonad on a sheaf topos eqipped with a site of definition, I’d like to have an explicit site of definition of the topos of coalgebras.
Specifically I’d like to have this for the jet comonad acting on a slice of the Cahiers topos over some smooth manifold .
Conversely, I suppose there is an evident structure of a site on the category of smooth bundles over with (nonlinear) differential operators between them as morphisms, hence on the restriction of the coKleisli category of the jet comonad to bundles of manifolds. How might the sheaf topos on that site be related to the topos of algebras over the comonad acting on the Cahiers topos?
That’s a very good question. I also think it would be interesting to contemplate what theory coalgebras classify (a question which could stand some refinement).
Getting generators for the category of coalgebras for an accessible comonad is a lot less obvious than the category of algebras for an accessible monad. Perhaps if someone knew an explicit argument for showing that the category of coalgebras is accessible…
Johnstone - “collapsed toposes” and “when is a variety a topos?” and “cartesian monads on toposes.”
Well, one could presumably beta-reduce Makkai-Pare’s limit theorem for the case of coalgebras..
Thanks for the replies.
Bas, thanks for the references, but does any one of them address the question that I am asking: how to get a site of definiton for the topos of coalgebras of a left exact accessible comonad acting on a topos?
By the discussion at topos of coalgebras over a comonad I already know that my category of coalgebras is a topos. What I am after is a site of definition for it.
I don’t need this site generally, just for the case of the jet comonad acting on the slice of the Cahiers topos over any manifold .
Or while I am at it, what I really-really need is to relate the topos of sheaves on the site (which is the restriction of the full coKleisli category to those objects in the Cahiers topos represented by Frechet manifolds) to the full topos of all coalgebras.
Now I don’t expect that to be helpful information to anyone, but that’s what I am really after.
Ah, I am being stupid. For that special case apply comonadic descent and it should follow that a site of definition is the comma category of the inclusion of the original site over .
Urs, I did not mean to imply that Johnstone’s papers answer your question, just that they are considered with the question when do T-algebras form a topos. I’ve added the references to the page for posterity.
