On Characterizing Injective Sheaves: Corrigendum
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Extract
B. Banaschewski [1] has produced a counterexample to [2, Theorem 6]. As noted in [1, Remark 1], our error occurs in the final paragraph of the purported proof of [2, Theorem 6], for P need not be a subpresheaf of I. Accordingly, it remains an open problem to find an analogue of [2, Proposition 1] in the context of Boolean spaces. We hope that attacks on this problem will be facilitated by the (valid) initial three paragraphs of the argument given for [2, Theorem 6].
The following alterations to [2] are in order. Example 5, being a corollary of Theorem 6, remains doubtful, although the special case noted on pp. 1034-1035 is not affected. In Corollary 7, the assertion that j preserves infectives remains doubtful, although the proof for divisibility of j(M)(G) is valid.
