In this video, we introduce the notion of fibre products. This is a fundamental notion with many uses throughout mathematics. Our focus will be its role in Grothendieck topologies. We look at some interesting examples related to the theory of Galois covers where the notion of fibre products can be used to recast the Galois condition.
