Zariski sheaves lifted to etale topology

I don't think so. Let $X$ be $\mathbb A^1_{\mathbb C}$ with two points glued together, and let $Y$ be the standard double étale cover, obtained by identifying two copies of $\mathbb A^1$. I claim that …

Can Inequivalent Topologies Have Same Sheaves/Cohomology?

I would think so. Two pretopologies are equivalent when they generate the same topology, that is, when the have the same sieves. If $A$ is an object of $C$, a sieve on $A$ is a subfunctor of the fun …

fppf-extension of algebraic groups is an algebraic group

Here is a possible road to a solution (I am fairly sure that Milne had something more elementary in mind). Algebraic spaces satisfy fppf descent; hence $G$ is a group object is in the category of alge …
