Extract

Duskin [1, 2] showed that gerbes over a Grothendieck topos E can be interpreted by certain internal groupoids of E which he called bouquets. He proved that for any bouquet B of E the fibred category F ors(B) of B-torsors is a gerbe over E, and conversely that any gerbe G gives rise to a bouquet B satisfying G ≅ F ors(B). We want to give here a somewhat different approach to these results, based on a construction of gerbes given in [3].
