The following lemma improves on the following statement
Let be a reflective subcategory of a topos.
Then is a topos if preserves pullbacks in the image of where
is the left adjoint of the Yoneda embedding of .
is the left Kan extension of along the left adjoint of the Yoneda embedding of.
The Yoneda embeddings of and both posess left adjoints: and are total: Since is a topos, is total, since is a reflective subcategory of a total category is total. By the adjoint functor theorem for total categories this implies that the Yoneda embeddings of and both posess left adjoints.
Yoneda extension always commutes with small colimits.
We have is a topos if sends colimits into limits is left exact.
is left a exact topos. iff is right exact. (Since is right exact.)
presrves is limits left in exact. the image of.
preserves sends pullbacks colimits in to the limits. image (Since of . (Since is a right reflector exact.) always preserves the terminal object and all finite limits can be constructed from pullbacks and the terminal object.)
presrves limits in the image of .
preserves pullbacks in the image of . (Since a reflector always preserves the terminal object and all finite limits can be constructed from pullbacks and the terminal object.)
