Definition

A constant sheaf is a sheaf (on some site C) that is isomorphic to the sheafification of a constant presheaf (a constant functor).

Together with the global section functor, the constant sheaf functor is a geometric morphism

Γ:Sh(C)Set:const \Gamma : Sh(C) \stackrel{\leftarrow}{\to} Set : const

from the sheaf topos to the topos Set.

Examples

Pattern

A locally constant sheaf / \infty-stack is also called a local system.
