A branch of algebraic topology concerning the study of cocycles and coboundaries. It is in some sense a dual theory to homology theory. This tag can be further specialized by using it in conjunction with the tags group-cohomology, etale-cohomology, sheaf-cohomology, galois-cohomology, lie-algebra-cohomology, motivic-cohomology, equivariant-cohomology, ...

Are cohomology functors sheaves?

More generally, are cohomology functors sheaves in general (in any reasonably non trivial Grothendieck topology)? … I am also interested in cohomology functors that arise in Algebriac geometry/topology. Is there a way of sheafification in this setup? …

Models for computing cohomology of Lie groupoids

The $k$-th cohomology of this double complex is defined to be the $k$-th deRham cohomology of the Lie groupoid $[\mathcal{G}_1\rightrightarrows \mathcal{G}_0]$. … Are there other models that compute cohomology of Lie groupoids? Are there other cohomology theories in the category of Lie groupoids? …

Easier ways to compute homology/cohomology by adding extra structure

Same is the situation with cohomology. Suppose I have a topological space $X$, I can talk about its singular cochain complex and the corresponding singular cohomology. … It is a standard result that, with correct coefficients, singular cohomology is same as deRham cohomology (deRham’s theorem). …

"a sign that one should be computing K-theory"

I know one or two things about torsion groups, examples of cohomology groups that has non zero torsion part, some definitions $K$-theory. … Can some one help me to understand why torsion in cohomology should remind about computing $K$-theory? Any references are welcome. …

Differential forms of a Lie group giving cohomology of the Lie group

groups gives cohomology of the Lie group? … By cohomology of the Lie group, I mean the cohomology of the underlying manifold. I do not think there is any notion of cohomology of Lie group. Even Google search does not give anything. …

De Rham cohomology of Lie groupoid

Proposition $13$ and Remark $16$ in page $10$ of Cohomology or Stacks says that, there is a natural isomorphism $$H^i_G(X)\rightarrow H^i(X\times G\rightrightarrows X)$$ where, $H^i_G(X)$ is the $i^{ … \text{th}}$ equivariant cohomology of $X$ with respect to action of $G$ and $H^i(X\times G\rightrightarrows X)$ is the $i^{\text{th}}$ deRham cohomology of the transformation groupoid $(X\times G\rightrightarrows …
