Noncommutative topologies, localization, and sheaves. (English) Zbl 1144.18010
Summary: We introduce and study the notion of sheaf on a noncommutative topology and construct an associated sheafification functor in this noncommutative context. It appears that abstract localization in the category of presheaves on a partially ordered set provides an elegant way to define this sheafification functor, generalizing similar constructions in the commutative case.
