General filtered-colimit infrastructure for presheaves #
Presheaf-level filtered-colimit helpers that do not require Noetherian hypotheses: finite-cover separation, eventual vanishing, compatible representative extraction, and finite-subcover gluing in cocone points.
Zero is preserved under filtered transitions: if restricting a transition to an open gives 0, then restricting any further transition also gives 0.
Pairwise compatibility is preserved under filtered transitions.
A section of a sheaf that restricts to 0 on a finite open cover is 0.
Merge finitely many eventually-zero restrictions into a common index.
If a representative of a colimit section restricts to zero in the cocone point, then after some filtered transition its restriction is already zero.
A section of a filtered colimit that restricts to zero on a finite open cover is zero. Combines representative extraction, per-element eventual vanishing, merging to a common index, and sheaf separation.
A finite compatible family in a filtered colimit admits representatives at one filtered stage that are pairwise compatible on the chosen finite subfamily.
A compatible family on a finite subcover, represented at a single filtered index, glues to a section of any cocone point with the prescribed finite restrictions.
If a section on iSup U agrees with a compatible family on a finite subcover,
then it restricts to that family on every U i.
A compatible family in a filtered colimit admits a unique gluing once the total open is dominated by a finite subcover.
