Hartshorne Ex. II 1.16 b) Flasque sheaves and exact sequences












7












$begingroup$


the exercise states that when we have an exact sequence
$0tomathcal{F}'tomathcal{F}tomathcal{F}''to 0$
of sheaves (say of Abelian groups) over a topological space $X$, and when $mathcal{F}'$ is flasque, then for any open set $Usubset X$, the sequence


$0tomathcal{F}'(U)tomathcal{F}(U)tomathcal{F}''(U)to 0$

is again exact.



By a previous exercise it is enough to show surjectivity.

I could also figure out that when we have $sinmathcal{F}''(U)$ and open subsets $V_1,V_2subset U$, such that $s$ on both there is a lift of $s$ (i.e. there is $t_iinmathcal{F}(V_i)$, s.t. the image of $t_i$ in $mathcal{F}''(V_i)$ is equal to the restriction $s|_{V_i}$), then $s$ can be lifted on their union.
It is also clear to me that there is an open cover of $U$ consisting of sets on which $s$ can be lifted. From here on I do not know how to proceed.



I have looked at other solutions and they want to apply Zorns Lemma, but it is not clear to me how this works here. They seem to use that given a chain (w.r.t. inclusion) of open subsets ($U_iota$) on which $s$ can be lifted, then there is a lift of $s$ on $bigcup U_iota$ because $mathcal{F}$ is a sheaf. However, I think this does not work, because we have no reason to assume that all the different lifts are compatible.
Can anybody help out here?

    Yes it works because in the chain $(U_i,s_i)$ the $s_i$'s are mutually compatible by definition of the partial order relation on the pairs $(U_i,s_i)$.

yeah, it works. you can always substitute the original lift of a chain to get a compatible lift, then you can define the maximal element of the chain.
