Surjective geometric morphism

ID: surjective-geometric-morphism

A geometric morphism is surjective when its inverse-image functor is faithful, equivalently conservative for geometric inverse images. Reflection of isomorphisms of subobjects already proves faithfulness by applying the inverse image to equalizers of parallel arrows. The surjection-embedding factorization of a geometric morphism separates this property from a fully faithful direct image.
