Definition

A sheaf topos \mathcal{E} is called strongly stably locally connected if it is a locally connected topos

(Π 0ΔΓ):ΓΔΠ 0Set (\Pi_0 \dashv \Delta \dashv \Gamma) : \mathcal{E} \stackrel{\overset{\Pi_0}{\longrightarrow}}{\stackrel{\overset{\Delta}{\longleftarrow}}{\underset{\Gamma}{\longrightarrow}}} Set

such that the extra left adjoint Π 0\Pi_0 in addition preserves finite products (the terminal object and binary products).

This means it is in particular also a connected topos.

If Π 0\Pi_0 preserves even all finite limits then \mathcal{E} is called a totally connected topos.

If a strongly stably locally connected topos is also alocal topos, then it is a cohesive topos.

Terminology

The “strong” in “strongly connected” may be read as referring to f !f *f_! \dashv f^* being a strong adjunction in that we have a natural isomorphism for the internal homs in the sense that

[f !X,A]f *[X,f *A]. [f_! X, A] \simeq f_* [X, f^* A] \,.

This follows already for ff connected and essential if f !f_! preserves products, because this already implies the equivalent Frobenius reciprocity isomorphism. See here for more.
