= Giraud subcategory
{wiki=Giraud_subcategory}
The concept of a Giraud subcategory arises in the context of category theory, particularly in the study of suitable subcategories of a given category. Giraud subcategories are named after the mathematician Jean Giraud, and they are important in the study of sheaf theory and topos theory. A Giraud subcategory is typically defined as a full subcategory of a topos (or a category with certain desirable properties) that retains the essential features of "nice" categories.
