Algebraic topology

Sheaf of spectra

In algebraic topology, a presheaf of spectra on a topological space X is a contravariant functor from the category of open subsets of X, where morphisms are inclusions, to the good category of commutative ring spectra. A theorem of Jardine says that such presheaves form a simplicial model category, where F →G is a weak equivalence if the induced map of homotopy sheaves is an isomorphism. A sheaf of spectra is then a fibrant/cofibrant object in that category. The notion is used to define, for example, a derived scheme in algebraic geometry. (Wikipedia).

Schemes 2: Etale spaces

This lecture is part of an online algebraic geometry course on schemes, based on chapter II of "Algebraic geometry" by Hartshorne. In it we explain why the obvious definition of an epimorphism of sheaves is wrong, and construct the etale space of a presheaf as preparation for giving the c
