Exact sequence of sheaves from the exactness of sections












1












$begingroup$


Let $X$ be a topological space, and $mathcal{F}_1$, $mathcal{F}_2$ and $mathcal{F}_3$ be sheaves on $X$. Suppose for all $U$ open in $X$ we have,



$0longrightarrow mathcal{F}_1(U)longrightarrowmathcal{F}_2(U)longrightarrowmathcal{F}_3(U)longrightarrow 0$ is exact, then I think that it is not necessarily true that the sheaf sequence $0longrightarrowmathcal{F}_1longrightarrowmathcal{F}_2longrightarrowmathcal{F}_3longrightarrow 0$ is exact.



But if we take direct limit over all open sets $U$ in the first sequence, since direct limit preserves exactness, we get
$0longrightarrowmathcal{F}_{1_x}longrightarrowmathcal{F}_{2_x}longrightarrowmathcal{F}_{3_x}longrightarrow 0$ is exact for all $x$.



That is we have stalk level exactness, therefore the sheave sequence is exact too. Is this right?

    Exactness of the sequences of sections immediately results in exactness of the sequence of sheaves. Compute each $ker$ and $operatorname{im}$ and verify this.

If the sequence $0to mathcal{F}_1(U)tomathcal{F}_2(U)tomathcal{F}_3(U)to 0$ is exact for every open $U$ then the sequence of sheaves $0to mathcal{F}_1tomathcal{F}_2tomathcal{F}_3to 0$ is certainly exact. What is not true is the opposite. That is if the sequence of sheaves $0to mathcal{F}_1tomathcal{F}_2tomathcal{F}_3to 0$ is exact then it doesn't follows that for every open $U$ the sequence $0to mathcal{F}_1(U)tomathcal{F}_2(U)tomathcal{F}_3(U)to 0$ is exact. For example $X=mathbb{S}^1$ (a circle), let $C^infty$ be the sheaf of (real valued) infinitely differentiable functions on $X$ and let $underline{mathbb{R}}$ be the subsheaf of $C^infty$ of constant functions (i.e. constant on every connected component), the sequence $0to underline{mathbb{R}}to C^infty xrightarrow{frac{d}{dx}} C^infty to 0$ is exact, however the sequence of global section (for $U=X$) is not. The remedy is sheaf cohomology.
