Lemma 7.14.6. Let \mathcal{C} and \mathcal{D} be sites. Let u : \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D} be continuous. Assume all the categories (\mathcal{I}_ V^ u)^{opp} of Section 7.5 are filtered. Then u defines a morphism of sites \mathcal{D} \to \mathcal{C}, in other words u_ s is exact.

Proof. Since u_ s is the left adjoint of u^ s we see that u_ s is right exact, see Categories, Lemma 4.24.6. Hence it suffices to show that u_ s is left exact. In other words we have to show that u_ s commutes with finite limits. Because the categories \mathcal{I}_ Y^{opp} are filtered we see that u_ p commutes with finite limits, see Categories, Lemma 4.19.2 (this also uses the description of limits in \textit{PSh}, see Section 7.4). And since sheafification commutes with finite limits as well (Lemma 7.10.14) we conclude because u_ s = \# \circ u_ p. \square
