Intersections of components of 'simple' ('local") Zariski coverings
I would like to study the ordered Cech cohomology with respect to a Zariski covering of a variety. I can pass to the limit with respect to refinements; the components of the 'limit covering' will be ...

Derived Equivalence of Sheaves and Homotopy
This question loosely elaborates on an earlier question. It is pretty silly, but I'd like to hear some authoritative answers.
Recall that if $f:S^{\bullet}\to T^{\bullet}$ is a quasi-isomorphism of ...

Basic properties of Nisnevich cohomology; $l'$-topology?
I would like to know more about Nisnevich cohomology (especially, on its properties that could be easily formulated). In particular, I would like to know which of the following statements are true, ...

Do infinitesimal neighbourhoods help to compute the inverse images of coherent sheaves?
Let $i:Z\to X$ be a closed embedding of (projective) varieties; $S$ is a coherent sheaf on $X$. How could one compute $H^*(Z,i^\ast S)$ (I don't know whether I should write $H^\ast (Z,i^{-1}S)$ ...

On inverse images with respect to Zariski-etale topology.
For a variety $X$ I define its Zariski-etale site as follows: the category is the category of etale $X$-schemes, and the coverings are Zariski ones. Note that this topology is more coarse than the ...

Non-realizable CR structures?
Hill, Penrose, and Sparling have an example of a non-realizable CR structure, a 5-manifold $M^5$ that comes equipped with a "twisted version" of the Lewy operator for the quadric $Q^2$,
$v = \frac{1}{...

orientations on a stratified space
For this question let $k$ be any field of characteristic not equal to $2$ and $X$ a stratified space whose strata are topological manifolds. I'm not sure what the definition of "stratified space" ...

Sheaves with isomorphic cohomology, but not quasi-isomorphic
Suppose I have two (constructible) sheaves of vector spaces $F$ and $G$ over the same base space that have isomorphic cohomology (degree by degree), but no sheaf map inducing this isomorphism (i.e. ...

The behavior of pure sheaves under functor Hom( F, -)
We know that a submodule A of B is pure if and only if the functor $Hom(M, -)$ is exact on the sequence
$ 0 \rightarrow A \rightarrow B \rightarrow C \rightarrow 0$
for every finitely presented module ...

Dualizing complex of the product of two locally compact spaces
Hello!
In the setting of locally compact Hausdorff spaces, I would like to understand the relation between the exterior product ${\mathbb D}_X\boxtimes{\mathbb D}_Y$ of the dualizing complexes of two ...

Non-cohomological proof that the pullback of an ample bundle by a finite morphism is ample
It is a standard fact that for any finite morphism of proper Noetherian $A$-schemes ($A$ being Noetherian), the pullback of an ample line bundle is ample. The usual proof of this fact is via Serre's ...

Sheaf Cohomology on Zariski-Riemann Spaces
Can sheaf cohomology on the Zariski-Riemann spaces give some sort of classification for field extensions (even just for function fields)? If not, are there any significant or useful results (e.g. for ...

How should a homotopy theorist think about sheaf cohomology?
As a student of homotopy theory or algebraic topology, I have a certain outlook as to how one ought to think of a cohomology theory. There are axioms that help us with rudimentary computations, there ...

Sheaf cohomology and injective resolutions
In defining sheaf cohomology (say in Hartshorne), a common approach seems to be defining the cohomology functors as derived functors. Is there any conceptual reason for injective resolution to come ...
