Abstract

We bridge sheaves of rings over a topological space with common meadows (algebraic structures where the inverse for multiplication is a total operation). More specifically, we show that the subclass of pre-meadows with a, coming from the lattice of open sets of a topological space X, and presheaves over X are the same structure. Furthermore, we provide a construction that, given a sheaf of rings F on X produces a common meadow as a disjoint union of elements of the form F(U) indexed over the open subsets of X. We also establish a correspondence between the process of going from a presheaf to a sheaf (called sheafification) and the process of going from a pre-meadow with a to a common meadow.
