hi...
i'd like to try to state some questions here that i'm interested in ...
we've already talked about many questions of the general form:
for some specific algebraic-geometric theory t, can we give a nice description of its universal property; that is, of what it's the "classifying space" for, or of what it's the "moduli space" of?
(where "algebraic-geometric theory" is my terminology for "symmetric monoidal cocomplete k-linear category"; sometimes i use "finitely cocomplete" instead of "cocomplete" but for now i'll stick with "cocomplete".)
thus for example we've talked a lot about the case of t = quasicoherent sheaves over P^n, and we've explored possible answers in that case such as "t is the theory of a line object L equipped with a good embedding into the direct sum of n+1 copies of the unit object".
but the new questions that i'm interested in (actually i've been thinking about them for a while, but i don't think that i've gotten a chance to explain them to you very well yet) are the same kind of questions, except dealing with so-called "geometric theories" instead of "algebraic-geometric theories". and just as "algebraic-geometric theory" is a synonym for "symmetric monoidal cocomplete k-linear category", "geometric theory" is a synonym for "grothendieck topos".
(roughly speaking, a grothendieck topos is a category which has all finite limits and all small colimits, and where the finite limits "distribute over" the colimits in the same way that they do in the category of sets.)
thus for example, at there's a brief discussion of many different ways of associating a topos to a scheme:
"More exotic examples, and the raison d'être of topos theory, come from algebraic geometry. To a scheme and even a stack one may associate an étale topos, an fppf topos, a Nisnevich topos..."
my main idea here is that when we create a topos from a scheme (or stack) in this way, the universal property of the resulting topos (or "geometric theory") should be very directly related to the universal property of the algebraic-geometric theory of quasicoherent sheaves over x.
thus for example consider ...
??something about "strictly local ring" and/or "henselian ..." or something ?? ...

??so what _does_ it mean to have a model of a classical first-order theory over the stone space given by 1-point compactification of N? ... ???.... ... somewhat concretely and explicitly ... ??.....
??hmm, so what about something about ... ???stone space (or something...) of subquotients (or something) of a set x ???? .... ???... ???hmm, what _about_ something about "orthogonality of partitions" (or something...) here??? .... ???what about something about "connection information" ?????? .... ????......
??maybe just something about "in-/efficiency" here??
?? ... more generally (...), what about something about ... ??stone space of t-structures on some stuff ... ???or something ... ??...
???hmm, so maybe the subquotients of a set really do form a stone space??? ??or something???... ....solutions of a system of boolean equations ... ??...
???something about ... ??"continuous map from stone space x to stone space of subquotients of s, with union of all the subs equal to s and coarsest mutual refinement of all the quotients equal to actual equality on s" ??? .... ???o something ???....

hmmmm...... ????.....
for example something about if the continuous map is constant ... ???....

??so what about "b-valued existence and equality predicates ..." (and so forth ...) and .... :
1 ??something about "kripke model" or something....
2 ??something about propositional theory ...
3 ??something about interpretation of quantifier ...
4 ??something about ... ??well, maybe nice simple example of #3, or something.... ??theory of "for all x there exists y st r(x,y)" ... or something ...
?? and so forth .... ???...
???something about ... ??"orthogonal partitions" and malcheff variety or something, and so forth .... ????...
something about mere oder up / downset , vs ... ??more ... ???...

??so suppose that we've got an open subset of the 1-point compactification of N ... ??then let's try thinking of it as "the set of sections of it (thought of as a subterminal sheaf) over _basic_ opens, equipped with the b-valued unary "existence" predicate given by "the basic open over which the section lives", and the b-valued binary "equality" predicate given by "the basic open over which the two sections agree" (??which i guess is just the intersection of the two basic opens ... ???or something ???....) ..." ??? ...... ???or something????....
??so... ??thinking of the basic opens as elements of a boolean ring, intersection corresponds to multiplication ???
???so the collection of basic opens contained within a given open u is ... ??a subset of the boolean ring ... ???the inclusion map being essentially the unary existence predicate??.... and ... ...
??well, there should be a number of different ways of thinking about it, and maybe good to try to keep them somewhat independent so as to be somewhat able to chekc then against each other ... ??or something ... ??
??so.. ??one approach is ...???something like ... ???"coherent geometric theory of a truth value" ... ??or something???...
??first, "coherent geometric theory of a set" ... ???or something ???....
set s equipped with unary and binary b-valued functions ("predicates") ... ??...
"reflexive"

"symmetric"

???then something about "subterminal" ... ???... ??"(x=y) <=> ((x=x) & (y=y))" ???or something ????....
??hmmm, so for example, suppose that we have 3-element set {a,b,c} ... ??then suppose we have 9 truth-values aa,ba,ca,ab,bb,cb,ac,bc,cc ... ??? hmmm...
let's start even simpler ... 0-element set ...

??what _about_ something about "basis-dependence" (or something ...???...) here ???....
???maybe try ignoring all in-/efficiency constraints for now ... ???
??so 0 generators always gives the initial sheaf ... ???or something ???....
so consider 1 generator a .... 1 truth-value "aa" ... could be anything...
??free boolean algebra on 1 generator ...
??now 2 generators a,b ... 4 truth-values aa,ba,ab,bb ... ??but really just 3 because ab<=>ba ... ??and then transitiveness says... ??what ??... aa*ab=>ab, and ab*ba=>aa, and ab*bb=>ab, and ba*aa=>ba, and ba*ab=>bb, and bb*ba=>ba ... ??? but by symmetricness this reduces to ... ???what ?? ... aa*ab=>ab, and ab*ab=>aa, and ab*bb=>ab, and ab*ab=>bb ...??or something ???...
??xy*yz => xz ...???

aa*ab*ab=aa*ab ... ???automatic??
ab*ab*aa=ab*ab ??ab*aa=ab
ab*bb=>ab ......................... ????...
??wait a minute, i think that i forgot the "subterminal" condition ... ???.... ??hmmm, which should hopefully bring it down to just freely choosing the existence predicate values, right???
aa bb ... ab <=> aa*bb ...
???so what _about_ simply an ideal ??? or something ???.... ??or complement thereof, or something ... ????....
???some confusion here ...
??something about .... ????collection of truth values that ... ???hmm, well maybe it is just like an ideal ... or something .... ??? ??"put in one global section for each element x in the ideal (??or its complement or something ???), but have its formal existence predicate value be equal to x" ... ???or something ???....

???something about "symmetric" vs "anti-symmetric" pattern here ???? .... ???or something ??? .... and so forth .... ????.....
??something about ... ext(m,m) ... ????..... ????something about "derivation" .... ?????? or something???? ...... .... ??????.....
hmmmm.....
"deformation" ....
"normal bundle" .... ????.....
??????.........
??so consider ... ???commutative k-algebra... ideal power filtration at a maximal (or something....) ideal .... corresponding to point ... ?? .... ????something about "maximal in maximal" ideal corresponding to tangent vector .... 2-stage fitration on quotient algebra ... ... associated graded... ???something about "fake tangent space" ... ??or something?? ... well, not quite, i guess, but ... ???.....
??hmm, something about the extension module as symmetric monoidal in the "tangent vector" case, but not the other case ... ?????or something ??? .... .... ??...
??so what about this concept of "derivation twisted by an automorphism" that baez mentioned?? ... hmmm... ??...
??so suppose that the automorphism is, for example, (x,y) |-> (-x,-y) ... ???
or also (x,y) |-> (-x,y) ???...
...and so forth ...
d(fg)=d(f)g(p)+f(q)d(g) ....
d(fg)=d(f)g(p)+f(-p)d(g) ... ??
d(f1)=d(f)+f(-p)d(1) ... ??
f = 1 ... ?? d(1) = d(1) + d(1) ... ??so d(1) = 0 ???
d("x^n" "x") = d("x^n") + "(-x)^n" d("x")
d("x^[n+1]") = d(x^[n]) + (-x)^n a ???
0
a
a - ax
a - ax + ax^2
a - ax + ax^2 - ax^3
???or something ??...
??hmmm... some idea that i had somewhere up above (and/or elsewhere...??...) seems confused now... backwards or something...
homomorphism from smooth functions on manifold m to upper-triangular 2x2 matrixes ... something about ... ??ext between skyscraper sheaves, or something ... ???...
??hmm, or_does_ it make some sense... ?? module of the algebra of smooth functions, with 2d underlying vector space ... ???and so forth, or something???...
??so what about something about ... ???stuff lawvere says somewhere about "wallman compactification" and so forth ???? ....
??something about ... ???boolean localic topos as spacial only in case of discrete space ... ???or something ??? ??is that what they said??? .... ??anyway, sort of seems to fit with some stuff ... ???something about "nonstandard analysis as special case of forcing" , so to speak .... ???? ... seems like "stone-czech compactification" (or something ... ??...) in this case, but ... ???....
??hmm, wpa says:
For normal spaces, the Wallman compactification is essentially the same as the Stone–Čech compactification.
