Are these comparison morphisms between Čech and Grothendieck cohomology the same?

For better or for worse, there is more than one approach to comparing Čech cohomology $\smash{\check{H}}^\bullet(\mathfrak{U},X;\mathscr{F})$ of a sheaf $\mathscr{F}$ on a space $X$ w.r.t the cover $\...

Idea of presheaf cohomology vs. sheaf cohomology

Let $X$ be a topological space and $U$ an open cover of $X$. In this thread Angelo explained beautifully how presheaf cohomology (Cech cohomology) relates to sheaf cohomology: The zeroth Cech ...

Does the category of $G$-equivariant sheaves have enough injectives?

The question is related to this one. Let $k$ be a field and $X$ be a topological space. We consider Sh$(X)$, the category of sheaves of $k$-vector spaces on $X$. Let $G$ be a topological group which ...

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 ...

Could we characterize injective objects in the category of $G$-equivariant sheaves?

Let $k$ be a field and $X$ be a topological space. We consider Sh$(X)$, the category of sheaves of $k$-vector spaces on $X$. Let $G$ be a topological group which act on $X$ continuously from the left....

About the left adjoint of $f^*$

In lots of different cases (Verdier duality, Grothendieck duality, étale cohomology, ...) the very existence of a (right) adjoint to the sheaf functor $f_!$ gives useful information. (I'm going to ...

How "commutative" are Cech cochains of a sheaf of commutative (dg) algebras?

Let $X$ be a topological space and $\mathcal{F}$ be a sheaf of commutative dg-algebras over $X$. Let $\mathfrak{U}$ be a fixed open covering of $X$ and $C^\bullet(\mathfrak{U},\mathcal{F})$ be the ...

K-flat, K-flabby resolution

Let $X$ be a topological space and $F$ a flat sheaf of abelian groups. It is well known that taking the Godement resolution of $F$ gives rise to a "flabbyflat" or "flasqueflat" resolution, in the ...

Does the de Rham complex induce a functorial soft resolution of the category of cochain complexes of sheaves of vector spaces on a smooth manifold?

I apologize in advance if this is pretty straightforward; I'm a differential geometer and physicist by training so my homological algebra and homotopy theory are a bit weak. Question: Let $M$ be a ...

Example of pseudocoherent complex which is not locally quasi-isomorphic to a strict pseudocoherent one

I ask this question here even if I posted it also on math.stackexchange (recieving no answer so far) because I have read some analogous question but for perfect complexes on this site, even though ...

Sheaf-type property for Derived Categories?

Suppose $X$ is a finite dimensional complex space (I'm happy to restrict to $X$ being a scheme of finite type over $\mathbb C$ as well). I'm wondering if the following sheaf-like properties hold for ...

Cohomological dimension of the category of sheaves

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold. Then for any sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on $X$, the cohomology $H^i(X; \mathcal{F})$ vanishes for $i > n$. Let $k$ be a field, and let $\mathrm{Shv}_k(X)$ be the ...

Image of Obstruction Map for Relative Quot-scheme

Computing injective resolution of some constant sheaves

What kind of ringed space $X$ has the property that a locally free sheaf is projective in Qcoh$(X)$?

It is well known that for an affine scheme $X$, every finitely generated locally free sheaf $\mathcal{E}$ is projective in the category Qcoh$(X)$. i.e. the functor $\text{Hom}_{\text{Qcoh}(X)}(\...

Characterization of global sections (which are not products) of a sheaf which is locally a product

In order to compute certain group cohomology sets I have come upon a construction which seems rather general concerning sheaves which are locally products. So I will state the problem here in a ...

Do we have $\underline{\operatorname{Ext}}^i_\text{fppf}(\widehat{\mathbb{G}}_a,\mathbb{G}_m)=0$ for $i>0$?

Let $k$ be a characteristic zero field and consider the category $(\mathsf{Sch}/k)_\text{fppf}$ of schemes over $k$ with the fppf topology. I know that $\underline{\operatorname{Hom}}(\mathbb{G}_a,\...

How to deduce Künneth from its relative version (in cohomology of sheaves)

Let $p:X\to S$ and $q:Y\to S$ be morphisms of "spaces" over $S$. We have an isomorphism $$f_!(M\boxtimes N)=p_! M\otimes q_!N$$ in the derived category of "sheaves" over $S$, where ...
