Are these comparison morphisms between Čech and Grothendieck cohomology the same?

For better or for worse, there is more than one approach to comparing Čech cohomology $\smash{\check{H}}^\bullet(\mathfrak{U},X;\mathscr{F})$ of a sheaf $\mathscr{F}$ on a space $X$ w.r.t the cover $\...

Countability assumption for good covers in Bott-Tu

In chapter II of their text Differential Forms in Algebraic Topology, Bott and Tu construct the Čech-De Rham complex with regards to an open covering indexed by some ordered and countable indexing set....

Using higher topos theory to study Cech cohomology

It seems to me that many classical statements about Cech cohomology should without much effort follow from Lurie's HTT, but I am struggling to fill out the details. I want to show that, given an ...

Sheaf cohomology on the formal completion of $\mathbb{P}^1_k$ at its north pole

Let $k$ be a field and let $\mathbb{P}^1_k$ be the projective line over $k$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a coherent sheaf on $\mathbb{P}^1_k$. The curve $\mathbb{P}^1_k$ is recovered by the two affine ...

Computing the coherent cohomology of a quasiprojective variety

I have a quasiprojective variety given by some explicit quations. How do I compute its coherent cohomology (with coefficients in the structure sheaf)? Do I use the Cech complex for an open affine ...

Cohomology with coefficient in sheaf of morphisms of an algebraic group

Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over ${\mathbb C}$. We denote the sheaf of morphisms from ${\mathbb A}^1$ to $G$ by $\bf G$. Then $H^1({\mathbb A}^1,\bf G)=0$ (Cech cohomlogy). Is this fact true? ...

Can morphisms of Mayer-Vietoris triangles be completed into a $3\times 3$ square?

Let $(X,\mathcal{O}_X)$ be a topological ringed space and $(U,V)$ be an open covering of $X$ (i.e. $U$ and $V$ are two open subsets of $X$ such that $U\cup V=X$). Let $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{F}'$ ...

Compute Cech cohomology with two open sets

Let $(X,\mathcal{O}_X)$ be a topological ringed space and $(U,V)$ be an open covering of $X$ (i.e. $U$ and $V$ are two open subsets of $X$ such that $U\cup V=X$). Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a sheaf of $\...

Canonicity of Čech cohomology

For a topological space $X$, consider the Leray covering $U_\lambda$ (i.e. $\cap U_\lambda$ is sufficiently fine, e.g. affine for Zariski topology) of $X$. For a sheaf $F$ on $X,$ the cohomology $H^...
