Jan 28, 2014 at 14:39 comment added Jason Starr The global sections of $i^{-1}(\mathcal{F})$ are "the same as" equivalence classes of sections of $\mathcal{F}$ on open neighborhoods of $C_1$ in $C$, where two sections are equivalent if their restrictions agree on some open neighborhood of $C_1$. So your problem is roughly the same as the problem of extending a section on an open to a global section. This is always possible for flasque sheaves, but rarely possible for coherent sheaves.
Jan 28, 2014 at 14:35 comment added user45397 @Starr: I am trying to understand better the concept of extending a section by zero. For instance when can I extend a section on $C_1$ to the whole of $C$.

Jan 28, 2014 at 14:23 comment added Jason Starr I am curious: where does this question come from? If you told us more about where your questions come from, perhaps MO users could provide more support than just listing counterexamples.
