Definition of étale for rings
You say that a ring homomorphism $\phi: A \to B$ is étale (resp. smooth, unramified), or that $B$ is étale (resp. smooth, unramified) over $A$ is the following two conditions are satisfied:
$A \to B …

Why is the rank of a locally free sheaf well-defined?
Actually, there are two different restriction maps:
The first one (the one you correctly say is neither surjective nor injective in general) is that on sections: for $\mathcal{F}$ a sheaf on a schem …

Is the Kähler cone of a toric variety always simplicial?
The Kähler cone of a del Pezzo surface of degree 6 is not simplicial: see section 6 of these notes.

Quotient of algebraic groups in the étale topology
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. According to SGA3, any closed normal subgroup $N$ is representable by an affine algebraic group, as is the quotient $G/N$.
These statements ar …

Hypercohomology of a complex via Cech cohomology
There is a nice treatment of it in chapter 1 of Brylisnki's Loop Spaces, Characteristic Classes and Geometric Quantization. In the Stacks projects, look for section 19.19.

FIltered colimits of truncated objects in $\infty$-topoi
The bare question:
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be an $\infty$-topos, and let $\tau_{\leq 0}\mathcal{C}$ be the subcategory of 0-truncated objects (which is the nerve of an ordinary Grothendieck topos: see HTT 6 …

Categorical construction of the category of schemes?
The highbrow way of reformulating your question is as follows. Consider the category $Sch$ of all schemes endowed with the Zariski topology. There is a fully faithful embedding of the category of aff …

What is the Zariski topology good/bad for?
As Kevin said, the higher cohomology groups of constant sheaves on irreducible varieties are zero when working with the Zariski topology. Also, "fibre bundles aren't locally trivial" and "the inverse …

In what degrees does Ext(S/(f),S) vanish?
Consider the exact sequence $0 \to S(-\mathrm{deg}\; f) \to S \to S/(f) \to 0$ (where the first map is multiplication by $f$) and take its long exact sequence of $\mathrm{Ext}$ groups. Since both $S$ …

Minimal size of an open affine cover
This is not a complete answer by any means, but here are the two most basic arguments. First of all, you have that every projective scheme that can be embedded in $\mathbb{P}^n$ can be covered by $n+1 …

Sheaf isomorphism.
On a complete nonsingular curve over an algebraically closed field, a line bundle of degree zero with a global section is necessarily the trivial bundle. This is lemma IV.1.2 in Hartshorne's Algebraic …

finding the closure when blowing a variety at a singularity
Look at the affine pieces: over the open subset $u \neq 0$, you have a local coordinate $z = v/u$ and your equations can be written as $y = zx$ and $xy = x^6 + y^6$. Substituting $y$ in the second equ …

Nature of Invertible Sheaves in which there are no global sections.
I'm not sure what if this is what you are looking for, but here goes. All the information that you are associating to sheaves $\mathcal{O}(d)$ for positive $d$ seems to be essentially attached to thei …

Examples of divisors on an analytical manifold
Here's a basic (and often used!) example: the zero locus of a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$. For concreteness, let me spell out the case $n = 1$, $d = 2$. Cover $\mathbb{P}^1$ …
