Hochschild cohomology of a sheaf of associative algebras

Assume that $X$ is a complex manifold. Let $\delta: X\to X\times X$ be the diagonal map. Assume that $\mathcal{A}_X$ is a $\mathbb C_X$-algebra and $\mathcal{M}_X$ is a left $\mathcal{A}_X\otimes_{\...

Cohomological methods in intersection theory and derived categories

Are there any enumerative questions akin to: “What is the number of planes containing a given line tangent to a given cubic surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$” that we can answer using derived categories? I've ...

Why is the derived tensor product only defined for bounded above derived categories?

In "Residues and Duality" by Hartshorne, the derived tensor $\otimes$ only defined for the bounded above categories (see Chapter II, section 4, p.93), that is one has $$\otimes: D^{-}(X) \...

$\operatorname{Ext}$-group in the category of modules versus in the subcategory of finitely generated ones

I am trying to refine my understanding of derived categories. Let $\text{Mod}_R$ and $\text{Mod}^f_R$ be respectively the categories of modules and finitely generated modules over a Notherian ring $R$ ...

Appropriate notion of derived category over condensed set

If we have a compact Hausdorff space $S$, then my understanding is that the appropriate notion of the derived category of sheaves of condensed abelian groups is to consider the derived category $D_{\...

Perverse sheaves on the complex affine line

Show that a perverse sheaf on $\mathbb{A}^1(\mathbb{C})$ (the complex plane with the analytic topology) is a bounded complex $A$ of sheaves of $\mathbb{Q}$-vector spaces with constructible cohomology ...

Extension groups in quotient categories

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian category and let $\mathcal{B}$ be a Serre subcategory of $\mathcal{A}$. We can form the quotient category $\mathcal{A}/\mathcal{B}$, and the canonical functor $Q:\...

2 K3s and cubic fourfolds containing a plane

Two K3 surfaces show up when talking about cubic fourfolds containing a plane. Let $P\subset X\subset \mathbb{P}^5$ be the plane inside the cubic. Since $P$ is cut out by 3 linear equations then $X$ ...

Reference for equivariant derived Künneth formula

I'm looking for a reference for the following statement in as much generality as possible, assuming it is correct. Let's $X$ and $Y$ be "spaces" with a $G$-action. We can take the $G$-product defined ...

Stalks of perverse cohomology sheaves?

For a complex of sheaves $\cal{F}^{\bullet}$ on a variety $X$, a useful fact is that the stalks of the cohomology sheaves of $\mathcal{F}^{\bullet}$ agree with the cohomology groups of the complex of ...

When is $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{F}):\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{A})\to \mathcal{D}(\mathcal{B})$ fully faithful?

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be two abelian categories and let $\mathcal{F}:\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{B}$ be an additive functor. Assume that $\mathcal{F}$ is exact and let $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{...

Cohomology of sheaves on $X \cup_{Z} Y$

I am in the following situation, I have two schemes $X$, $Y$ and two closed immersions $Z \rightarrow Y$, $Z \rightarrow X$. Everything is smooth. I am interested in calculating morphisms in the ...

Different definitions of derived functors

In principle one uses the notion of derived category, and the other doesn't. Suppose $F: \mathcal A \to \mathcal B$ is a left exact (additive) functor between abelian categories, and suppose the ...

Injective model structure on sheaves of bounded complexes of $A$-modules

The following might be very well known for people who works with model categories, but I do not find the answer. Let $A$-be a ring. Denote $\mathbf{Ch}_+(A)$ the category of positive degree cochain ...

Is there a (satisfying) proof that cellular cohomology is isomorphic to simplicial cohomology that doesn't use relative cohomlogy?

That singular and de Rham cohomologies of a smooth manifold are isomorphic has two proofs that I know of. The classical one uses Stokes' theorem to give the isomorphism explicitly. The second proof ...

Are $D^b_{coh}(X)$ and $D^b(Coh(X))$ derived equivalent?

Let $X$ be a variety. Let $D^b(Coh(X))$ be the derived category of bounded complexes of coherent sheaves on $X$, and $D^b_{coh}(X)$ be the derived category of bounded complexes of sheaves of $\...

Evens norm as a derived functor

In the theory of cohomology of groups there are several important maps between cohomologies: restriction, inflation, transfer and Evens norm. The first three of them can be clearly seen on the level ...

Exceptional collections and cohomological criteria for isomorphism

Suppose that we are given a smooth projective variety $X$ with a full exceptional collection of vector bundles $(F_1, F_2, \ldots, F_k)$ in $D^b(X)$ and two vector bundles $E_1$, $E_2$ on $X$. ...
