| A {\em topos} is a Cartesian closed category of sheaves on a Grothendieck site with all the applicable colimits of finite index categories, a subobject classifier and an exponential object. The plurals {\em toposes} and {\em topoi} are encountered with about equal frequency in the literature. Alexander Grothendieck and Jean Giraud were the pioneers of topos theory. |
