Definition

Let $\dagger$ be a monad on a presentable $(\infty,1)$-category $C$. A morphism $f:X\to Y$ is called $\dagger$-closed if

is a pullback square.

Remark

A class of $\dagger$-closed morphism which is closed under pullback is an admissible structure defining a geometry in the sense of Lurie’s DAG.

Theorem (Formally étale subslices are coreflecive)

Let $C/X$ be a slice of $C$. The full sub-$(\infty,1)$-category $(C/X)_\dagger\stackrel{\iota}{\hookrightarrow} C/X$ on those morphisms into $X$ which are $\dagger$-closed is reflective and coreflective; i.e. $\iota$ fits into an adjoint triple

In particular $C_\dagger:=(C/*)_\dagger\hookrightarrow C$ is reflective and coreflective.

Example ($\mathbf{\Pi}_inf$-closed morphism)

Let $H$ be a cohesive $(\infty,1)$-topos equipped with infinitesimal cohesion

Then the class of formally étale morphisms in $H$ equals the class of $\mathbf{\Pi}_inf:=i_*i^*$-closed morphisms in $H_th$ which happen to lie in $H$.

Theorem

For the classs $E$ of $\mathbf{\Pi}_inf$-closed morphisms in $C$ we have in addition to the above closure properties also the following ones:

(1) If in a pullback square in $C$ the left arrow is in $E$ and the bottom arrow is an effective epimorphism, then the right arrow is in $E$.

(2) Every morphism $D\to *$ from a discrete object to the terminal object is in $E$.

(3) $E$ is closed under colimit (taken in the arrow category).

(4) $E$ is closed under forming diagonals.

Definition ($\mathbf{\Pi}_inf$-closed object)

An object of $H$ is called formally étale object if there is a formally étale (effective) epimorphism (called atlas) from a $0$-truncated object into $X$.

Theorem (De Rham theorem for formally étale objects)

The de Rham theorem holds for any formally étale object for which the de Rham theorem holds level-wise in regard to the Cech nerve induced from the atlas.

Theorem (Hausdorff manifold)

(1) $X$ is a paracompact if there is a set of monomorphisms $\phi_i:\mathbb{R}^n\to X$ such that the corresponding Cech groupoid $\zeta_\phi$ is degree-wise a coproduct of copies of $\mathbb{R}^n$.

(2) $X$ is hausdorff if $\zeta_\phi$ is moreover étale.
