Pullback by surjective submersion is injective?

Denote by $\mathcal{D}'_X$ the sheaf of distributions on a smooth manifold $X$. Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth manifolds and $\Phi: M \to N$ a submersion. Then $\Phi$ defines a unique morphism of sheaves $\...

Delta distribution on manifolds

Let $M$ be a manifold. There is the sheaf of distributions $\mathcal{D}'$ and the sheaf of distribution densities $\mathcal{D}(\cdot)'$ on $M$. A delta distribution density $\delta_p \in \mathcal{D}(M)...

Cohomology of sheaf of Schwartz distributions with support in a submanifold

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold. Let $Z\subset M$ be a smooth submanifold which is a closed subset. Let $F$ denote the sheaf of generalized functions (equivalently, Schwartz distributions) on $M$, namely ...

Question on de Rham complex with distributional coefficients

Let $X$ be a smooth manifold (usually assumed to be paracompact). Let us denote by $\underline{\Omega}^{p,-\infty}_X$ the sheaf of real valued $p$-forms with distributional coefficients in the ...
