Under what generality are the compactly supported singular and sheaf cohomologies equal?

Edit: I have since resolved my question. If X is locally compact Hausdorff in addition to being cohomologically locally contractible with coefficients in $A$ - eg it is a manifold or an open subset of ...

Canonical product in sheaf cohomology

EDIT: Let $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}$ be sheaves of abelian groups on a topological space $X$. Then there exists a canonical cup product $$H^i(X,\mathcal{F})\otimes_\mathbb{Z}H^j(X,\mathcal{G})\to H^{i+...

Artin-Winters proof of semi-stable reduction theorem: details

I've been reading through Artin-Winters proof of the semi-stable reduction theorem (Degenerate fibers and stable reduction of curves) and found myself confused about the following detail— Let $\...

Cohomology of doubly pinched torus via spectral sequences

Let $f:T^2\to Y$ be a resolution of singularities where $Y$ is a torus with two "pinched" points (or, if you prefer, two copies of $\mathbb{P}^1$ meeting at two points). I'm interested in ...

Pushforward in Compactly Supported Cohomology

Suppose $X,Y$ are locally compact Hausdorff spaces and $f:X\to Y$ is a topological submersion of relative dimension $n$. By this we mean that for all points $x\in X$, there exists an open neighborhood ...

Commutativity between functors on sheaves of abelian groups

I am trying to understand certain properties of sheaf theory, but I'm having trouble finding the notions to answer my questions. I'd be really glad if someone could help me with the following. Let $f :...

Continuous map with homeomorphic fibers whose associated $H^{k}_c$ sheaf is not a local system?

Let $ f: X \to Y$ be a continuous map between connected manifolds s.t. for all $y \in Y$ the fiber $f^{-1}(y)$ is homeomorphic to some fixed connected manifold $Z$. Let $k$ be a ring and for every $...

The sheaf propagation is open in the zero section

Let $X$ a smooth manifold and $F$ a sheaf (let's say of abelian groups) on $X$. We will say that $F$ propagates at $x\in X$ in the (co)-direction $p \in T_x^*X$ if for all $C^1$-function $\phi$ ...

Equivalence of different cohomology groups

Let $X$ be a topological space (may be assumed to be locally compact). Let $A$ be either a field or $\mathbb{Z}$. One can consider various cohomology groups: (1) singular cohomology $H_{sing}^*(X,A)$;...

Cech cohomology.

Let us consider the scheme $X$ and the coherent sheaf $\cal F$ on it. We consider finitely many affine open covers $U_{\lambda}$ with $\lambda \in \Lambda$. When I calculate Cech cohomology with $U_{\...

cohomology and $j_!$

I have a projective variety $X$ and an open immersion $j : U \to X$. Say I have a sheaf, locally free in my case of interest, $\mathcal{S}$ on $U$. Is there any reasonable relationship between $H^i(X,...
