Clarification on smooth de Rham theorem

I am misunderstanding something in Theorem 2.1.9 in Dimca’s Sheaves in Topology: Let $X$ be a real smooth manifold. Then the natural morphism from the constant sheaf to the de Rham complex $$\mathbb{R}...

Isomorphism of cohomology bundles for smooth homotopic fibrations

Let $M,N$ be closed smooth manifolds. Let $f_0,f_1\colon M\to N$ be two smooth fibrations which are homotopic to each other in the class of smooth (equivalently, continuous) maps. Let $E^i_0, E^i_1$ ...

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 ...

Cohomology of boundary of locally symmetric space

Let $S$ be a locally symmetric space, not necessarily compact, and $\overline{S}$ be its Borel-Serre compactification. Let $\partial S$ be the boundary of $S$. Let $\widetilde{\mathbb{C}}$ be the ...

Vanishing of sheaf cohomology with compact support

Let $X$ be a smooth manifold. Let $F$ be a sheaf of $\mathbb{R}$-vector spaces on $X$. I have three closely related questions. 1) Under what sufficient conditions on $F$ for any compact subset $K\...
