Spectral sequences in Hypercohomology of sheaves
Alright, here I go again, don't know if I'm missing something here but let $X$ be a topological space and let $F^{\bullet}$ be a cochain complex of sheaves, I want to compute the cohomology of this ...

Hypercohomology of a complex of sheaves that might be acyclic (or might not)
Back again, check this out, let $X$ be a topological space and let $F^{\bullet}$ be a cochain complex of sheaves, I'm trying to compute the cohomology of the complex of global sections of the sheaves

Orientation Sheaf and Double Cover
The orientation sheaf of an $n$-manifold $M$ is $\mathcal{O}_n=Sheaf(U\mapsto H_n(M,M-U;\mathbb{Z}))$, with stalks given by $(\mathcal{O}_n)_x = lim H_n(M,M-U)=H_n(M,M-x)=\mathbb{Z}$ (the limit is ...

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 ...

Does one need to sheafify when defining the inverse image of a sheaf with respect to an embedding?
This seems to be a rather simple (stupid?:)) question; yet I was not able to find an answer quickly.
For a morphism $f:X\to Y$ of schemes (or topological spaces) and an (etale or topological) sheaf $...

Exercise concerning locally constant presheaves [closed]
Let $\mathscr{F}$ be a presheaf of abelian groups on some topological space $X$. We say that $\mathscr{F}$ is locally constant if there exists an open cover $\mathcal{U}$ of $X$ (i.e. $X=\bigcup_{U\in\...

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 ...

Applications of sheaf theory to the computation of invariants of LS-category type
I would like to know if sheaf theory can be applied to a particular class of questions in topology.
The Schwarz genus (also known as sectional category) of a continuous map $p\colon\thinspace E\to ...

Why is this a local constant sheaf
If a group $G$ acts on a topological space $M$, and a representation of $G$ on a vector space $V$, why $M \times_G V$ is a local constant sheaf over $M/G$?

Descent of singular cohomology
When proving that singular cohomology of an appropriate space $X$ equals sheaf cohomology of $X$ with "values" (does one say that?) in the sheaf $\mathbb{Z}_X$ of locally constant functions, the ...
