Description |
By a classifying topos for a first-order theory T, we mean a toposE such that, for any topos F, models of T in F correspond exactly toopen geometric morphisms F ! E. We show that not every (infinitary)first-order theory has a classifying topos in this sense, but wecharacterize those which do by an appropriate `smallness condition',and we show that every Grothendieck topos arises as the classifyingtopos of such a theory. We also show that every first-order theory has a conservative extension to one which possesses a classifying topos, and we obtain a Heyting-valued completeness theorem for infinitary first-order logic.
