Grothendieck spectral sequence (cohomology version) for posets with functor coefficient

In this paper, Quillen mentioned a spectral sequence as follows. Let $f:X\to Y$ is a poset map and $\mathcal{F}:X\to Ab$, where $Ab$ is the category of abelian groups, a functor which is contravariant ...

Is the derived category of sheaves localised at pointwise homotopy equivalences locally small?

In order to define the cup and cross products in sheaf cohomology, Iversen makes computations in an intermediate derived category. If $K(X;k)$ is the triangulated category of cochain complexes of ...

When (or why) is a six-functor formalism enough?

The six functor formalism in a given cohomology theory consists of for each space a derived category of sheaves and six different ways to construct functors between those categories (four involving a ...

Unbounded acyclic resolutions

Let $\mathscr A$ be a Grothendieck abelian category. Then every object in $\operatorname{Ch}(\mathscr A)$ is quasi-isomorphic to a $K$-injective object [Stacks, Tag 079P]. In particular, for any left ...

Zorn's lemma for Grothendieck sites

In every treatment of Grothendieck sites I can find, flasque sheaves are not defined in the way one would naïvely expect from ordinary sheaf cohomology; namely instead of saying that "restriction ...

Is the right adjoint to presheaf direct image interesting?

Let $X\overset{f}{\to}Y$ be a continuous map. It induces on presheaves a classical adjunction inverse image ⊣ direct image. However, the direct image functor has a further right adjoint, defined by ...

Conceptual definition of derived functors allowing for quick proof of comparison theorems for sheaf cohomology

There are several approaches of increasing sophistication and simplicity to defining derived functors. I know of universal $\delta$-functors and Kan extensions along localizations. More definitions ...

Does local cohomology commute with pullback?

Let $Y$ be a topological spaces and $Z \subset Y$ be locally closed, i.e. $Z=V \cap U^c$ for $U,V \subset Y$ open. For any abelian sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on $Y$ let $\Gamma_Z(Y,\mathcal{F}):=\ker(\...

Sheaf / de Rham cohomology of a stack with values in a complex of abelian sheaves

I am reading Differentiable Stacks and Gerbes to understand about (hyper) cohomology groups of a stack $\mathcal{X}$ with values in a complex $\mathcal{M}$ of abelian sheaves over $\mathcal{X}$. ...

Inception of modern view of Sheaf Cohomology in Mathematical Literature

From wikipedia entry on Sheaf Cohomology I have found the intriguing passage: 'The essential point is to fix a topological space X and think of cohomology as a functor from sheaves of abelian groups ...

Deducing properness from $H^i(X, \mathcal{F})$ finitely generated over $\Gamma(O_X)$

Suppose that $X$ is a quasi-projective variety over a field $k$ and that we further know that for every coherent sheaf $\mathcal{F}$, $H^i(X,\mathcal{F})$ is finitely generated over $\Gamma(O_X)$. Is ...
