Local charts on the étalé space of a presheaf #
This file supplies the local-homeomorphism API for the étalé space of a presheaf. A section over an open set determines a continuous section of the étalé projection, whose range consists of its germs. This range is open and gives a local chart. Consequently, the projection from the étalé space to its base is a local homeomorphism.
The construction extends the étalé-space topology and germ API in
Mathlib.Topology.Sheaves.EtaleSpace. It is the topological prerequisite for applying
Mathlib's abstract IsLocalHomeomorph.monodromy_theorem to analytic continuation: the remaining
analytic input is separatedness of the projection, supplied by the identity theorem for
holomorphic functions.
A section of a presheaf, viewed as a section of the étalé projection.

Instances For
The germ section written out: over x, it is the pair of x and the germ of s at x.
This is the characteristic property of TauCeti.TopCat.Presheaf.EtaleSpace.germSection, and the
form in which a concrete germ map is identified with it.
The open set in the étalé space swept out by the germs of a section.
Equations
Instances For
Membership in the range of a germ section means being the germ of that section at the underlying base point.
The germs of a section form an open subset of the étalé space.
A germ section is injective because the étalé projection recovers its argument.
The map taking a point to the germ of a fixed section there is continuous.
A germ section is an open embedding of its domain into the étalé space.
The projection from the étalé space of a presheaf to the base is a local homeomorphism.
