## Idea

In a context of synthetic differential geometry/differential cohesion the infinitesimal flat modality is the right adjoint in an adjoint modality with the infinitesimal shape modality.

## Definition

A context of differential cohesion is determined by the existence of an adjoint triple of modalities forming two pairs of adjoint modalities

$\Re \dashv \Im \dashv \& \,,$

where $\Re$ and $\&$ are idempotent comonads and $\Im$ is an idempotent monad.

Here $\&$ is the infinitesimal flat modality.

## Properties

### Relation to crystalline cohomology

For $A$ a geometric homotopy type, $\& A$ is the coefficient for crystalline cohomology with coefficients in $A$. See there for more.

• (shape modality $\dashv$ flat modality $\dashv$ sharp modality)

$(\esh \dashv \flat \dashv \sharp )$

• dR-shape modality$\dashv$ dR-flat modality

$\esh_{dR} \dashv \flat_{dR}$
