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+...

Yoneda product on Ext
Let $M$ be a closed manifold and consider the constant sheaf $\mathbb{R}_M$. I have heard that the Yoneda product on $\operatorname{Ext}(\mathbb{R}_M, \mathbb{R}_M)= H^*(M; \mathbb{R})$ coincides with ...

What is homology anyway?
Disclaimer: I don't feel qualified to ask this question and yet it's been troubling me for some time now and I lost my patience and decided to ask to get some kind of answer. If there are any stupid ...

When does derived pullback commute with infinite products?
Let $f:X \to Y$ be a morphism of reasonable schemes (qcqs). Let $f^*: D(Y) \to D(X)$ be the pullback defined on the derived unbounded categories of quasi-coherent sheaves.
Question: When does $f^*$...

Does the Čech cohomology always yield long exact sequences from short ones?
Does the Čech cohomology always give rise to a long exact sequences given a short exact sequence of sheaves?
Clearly that cannot occur for sheaves on a paracomact (perhaps also Hausdorff, I'm not ...

Question about hypercohomology / spectral sequence of a complex of "almost-acyclic" sheaves
I have a very particular situation involving a (non-exact) complex $K$ of coherent sheaves on a nonsingular projective variety $X$, and I need to compute the hypercohomology of the complex. The ...

Equivalence of ordered and unordered cech cohomology.
Given a topological space X and a finite cover X = $\cup X_i$, one can define Cech cohomology of a sheaf of abelian groups F with respect to the cover $\{X_i\}$ in two different ways:
(Ordered): ...
