Questions tagged [sheaf-theory]

For questions about sheaves on a topological space. Usually you think of a sheaf on a space as the data of functions defined on that space, although there is a more general interpretation in terms of category theory. Use this tag with the broader (algebraic-geometry) tag.

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a Grothendieck site, and form a cartesian square with $f:X\to S$, $g: S'\to S$ to get $X'=X\times_S S'$, $f': X'\to S'$ and $g': X'\to X$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a sheaf of abelian ...

Let us consider a cartesian diagram of schemes $$ \require{AMScd} \begin{CD} X'=X \times_S S' @>{g'} >> X \\ @VVf'V @VVfV \\ Y' @>{g}>> Y \end{CD} $$ and let $F$ a sheaf on $X$. ...

Suppose $ j :U \to X $ is an open immersion of topological spaces. We know that $ j_{!}F $ is a subsheaf of $ j_{*}F$ for any sheaf $ F$ on $U$. If $ F = j^{-1}G $ for a sheaf $ G $ on $ X$, then I ...

In a site $\mathcal{C}$ with coverage $J$, an object $P \in \mathcal{C}$ is $\textbf{local}$ if, for every covering $\{ U_i \rightarrow U \}$ and every morphism $P \rightarrow U$, there exists some $i$...

In Rotman’s An Introduction to Homological Algebra he defines an étale sheaf (of abelian groups) on p. 276 as follows: Definition. If $p: E \rightarrow X$ is continuous, where $X$ and $E$ are ...

I have a question about the proof of the following result in Kashiwara, Schapira, Sheaves on Manifolds: Proposition 2.5.12 [Let $X$ be a Hausdorff and locally compact space.] Let $A$ be a ring, and ...

Let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a continuous function between topological spaces. Let $F$ be a sheaf on $X$, and $y \in range(f)$ and $x$ be a preimage. Then, there is a natural map $(f_* F)_{y}\...

This is a well-known fact, but why is the Brauer group of a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ equal to $H^2(X,\mathbb{Z})_{\text{tors}}$? I understand that $\text{Br}(X) = H^2(X,\mathcal{O}_X^*)_{\text{tors}}$ ...

Here's the statement on the book: Let $(\mathscr{O}_X, \mathscr{O}_X)$ be a ringed space. Let $0 \rightarrow \mathscr{F}' \rightarrow \mathscr{F} \rightarrow \mathscr{F}'' \rightarrow 0$ be an exact ...

A coverage on a category $C$ assignes to every object $c$ of $C$ a family of covers of $c$, and a cover $S$ of $c$ is just a collection of morphisms $S = \{f_i \colon c_i \to c\}$ with codomain $c$. ...

I have a little problem in the proof of (4) in 0A6H. For an affine scheme $X=\text{Spec }A$, and $K, L\in D(A)$, we want to show that the cohomology sheaf $H^n(R\mathcal{Hom}(\tilde{K},\tilde{L}))$ is ...

I want to know the following: Let $E$ be a coherent torsion-free sheaf on a surface $S$ and $f$ an endomorphism on $E$. As $E$ is without torsion, there is an inclusion $ev: E \hookrightarrow E^{**}$. ...
