In terms of sheaf cohomology, what does Bott & Tu's relative de Rham cohomology $H^\bullet(f)$ compute for $f: S \to M$ a smooth map?
Given a map $f: S \to M$ of smooth manifolds, Bott & Tu define on page 78 a complex by $\Omega^q(f)=\Omega^q(M) \oplus \Omega^{q-1}(S)$ and $d(\omega, \theta)=(d\omega, f^*\omega - d\theta)$ where ...

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 ...

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 ...

Push forward of the constant sheaf for a Serre's fibration
Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a proper continuous map of topological spaces which is a Serre's fibration. $X$ and $Y$ may be assumed to be locally compact, $Y$ is connected topological manifold of finite ...

Question about the precise statement of Leray spectral sequences and a simple example
On Bott's paper "Homogeneous vector bundles" there is the following statement of Leray spectral sequence:
Let $X$ and $Y$ be paracompact and locally compact spaces and $f : Y \to X$ be a proper map....

Equivalence of cohomology with compact support
Let $𝑋$ be a connected CW complex, $𝜌:\pi_1(𝑋)→\mathrm{Aut}(G)$ a representation, and $G_\rho$ the associated sheaf. It follows from here, that the following two cohomologies are isomorphic.
(1)The ...

Sheaves and isomorphisms with chain complex of singular chains (Sheaf Theory, Bredon)
Let $\Delta_{\ast}(X,A)$ (resp. $\Delta_{\ast}^c(X,A)$) be the chain complex of locally finite (resp. finite) singular chains of $X$ modulo those chains in $A$.
How to show that the homomorphism of ...

How can one compute the cohomology of $i'^*C$, for $i':\mathbb{A}^{N-1}\setminus \{0\}\to \mathbb{A}^{N}\setminus \{0\} $?
For an (etale or 'topological', constructible bounded) complex of sheaves $C$ on $X'=\mathbb{A}^{N}\setminus \{0\} $, $i'$ being the embedding $\mathbb{A}^{N-1}\setminus \{0\}\to \mathbb{A}^{N}\...
