Classification of foliations

The Haefliger groupoid classifies foliations. See at Haefliger theorem.

Universal characterization

Consider in the following the union ℋ\mathcal{H} of Haefliger groupoids over all nn.

(Carchedi 12, theorem 3.3.)

This implies (Carchedi 12, 3,2)

(Carchedi 12, theorem 1.3)

Sheaves and stacks on the Haefliger groupoid.

Consider in the following the union ℋ\mathcal{H} of Haefliger groupoids over all nn.

(Carchedi 12, theorem 3.1).

Proposition

The 2-topos over the Haefliger stack is equivalent to the 2-topos over the site SmthMfd etSmthMfd^{et} of smooth manifolds with local diffeomorphisms between them:

St(ℋ)≃St(SmthMfd et) St(\mathcal{H}) \simeq St(SmthMfd^{et})

(Carchedi 12, 3.2).
