  Coherent sheaf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, especially in algebraic geometry and the theory of complex manifolds, a coherent sheaf F on a locally ringed space X is a sheaf isomorphic with the cokernel of a morphism of O
The role played by coherent sheaves is as a class of sheaves, say on an algebraic variety or complex manifold, that is more general than the locally free sheaf — such as invertible sheaf, or sheaf of sections of a (holomorphic) vector bundle — but still with manageable properties.
In the basic work of Serre, it was shown first that compact complex manifolds have the property that their sheaf cohomology for any coherent sheaf consists of vector spaces of finite dimension.

 Coherence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coherence is from Latin cohaerere = stick together, to be connected with, logically consistent.
Coherence is an attribute of physical quantities that can be described in terms of waves when a well-defined wavefront can be defined, as in classical optics.
Cache coherence and (more generally) memory coherence are concepts in computer architecture.

Then a sheaf of modules over X, often called just a sheaf over X, is a sheaf of O-modu* *les on AffT=X. More concretely, a sheaf M is a functorial assignment of an R-module Mx to each point (R, x), satisfying the sheaf condition.
A sheaf M over X would be as assignment of a graded R-module Mx to each point (R, x) of X(R), satisfying the functoriality and sheaf conditions.
A quasi-coherent sheaf over (X0, X1) is a sheaf M over (X0, X1) in the trivial topology such that M is quasi-coheren* *t as a sheaf over X0.

 coherent sheaves   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The main reason to implement algebraic varieties is support the computation of sheaf cohomology of coherent sheaves, which doesn't have an immediate description in terms of graded modules.
In this example, we use cotangentSheaf to produce the cotangent sheaf on a K3 surface and compute its sheaf cohomology.
Use the function sheaf to convert a graded module to a coherent sheaf, and module to get the graded module back again.

Because of this stalk issue, and because the stalk of a presheaf is the stalk of the associated sheaf, psi^{-1} is an exact functor from the category of sheaves on Y to the category of sheaves on X. +++ 3.8 Sheaves of pseudo-discrete spaces.
Thus, the more abstract notion of coherence as in FAC is a better point of view than the defn as in Hartshorne (which he makes applicable to both schemes and formal schemes, but in a sort of ad hoc manner).
If O_X is coherent, and F is a coherent O_X-module, then any finitely generated (=finite type) submodule of a stalk of F extends, in a neighbourhood of the point, to a coherent submodule of F. This isn't proven, just taken from Tohoku.

There is a general definition, due to Grothendieck, of the sheaf of differential operators on a general variety X. This is a coherent sheaf with many nice properties when X is a smooth variety, but in general it is only quasi-coherent.
One line of investigation is to study this sheaf, or its ring of sections in the local case, and the corresponding representations or D-modules.
Although nice results are known about this sheaf in a variety of singular situations, it is known to behave quite badly "mostly".

They kept the sacrifice on 14 Nisan in the evening at the end of the day of the 14th and commenced the meal on the evening of 15 Nisan, all determined according to the conjunction.
The sacrifice of the Wave Sheaf, when coupled with the feasts and New Moons, has a great significance, which was dealt with in the paper The Harvests of God, the New Moon Sacrifices, and the 144,000 (No. 120).
The Wave Sheaf Offering is included in Leviticus 23 even though it is not a Holy Day, because it is integral to the Feast of Unleavened Bread and is the primary element of the Harvest of God.

Moreover, when developed in a categorical framework, traditional boundaries between disciplines are shattered and reconfigured; to mention but one important example, topos theory provides a direct bridge between algebraic geometry and logic, to the point where certain results in algebraic geometry are directly translated into logic and vice versa.
The structure of this specific area, in a sense, might not need to rest on anything, that is, on some solid soil, for it might very well be just one part of a larger network that is without any Archimedean point, as if floating in space.

\vvv \hhh In this paper, exploiting the theory of Fourier transforms, we prove that a coherent sheaf which is generically of rank $1$ on an abelian variety and is "cohomologically" a principal polarization, must in fact be a line bundle and hence a principal polarization.
Given a log-resolution of the pair $(X,D)$, we can define the multiplier ideal sheaf associated to the divisor $D$, $$\II (D):=f_* (\OO _Y (K_{Y/X}-\lfloor f^* D \rfloor))\.$$ The definition is independent of the choice of log-resolution.
The goal here is to show that the sheaf $\OO _{{X}}({\Theta})\ot \II (\Theta)$ is a cohomological principal polarization and then to apply proposition 2.2.

Describing the direct image complex of a coherent sheaf under a projective morphism
The ordinary direct image sheaf is simply the degree 0 part of a sufficiently nice representative module.
The higher direct images measure the failure of exactness of this construction (coming from the fact that the nice representatives of an exact sequence of sheaves do not form an exact sequence of modules.) However, base change (tensoring with an A-algebra) is badly behaved for these functors.

 Abstract   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Abstract: (Joint work with David Eisenbud) The higher direct image complex of a coherent sheaf (or finite complex of coherent sheaves) under a projective morphism is a fundamental construction that can be defined via a Cech complex or an injective resolution, both inherently infinite constructions.
Using exterior algebras and relative versions of theorems of Beilinson and Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand, we give an alternate description in finite terms.
Our approach is so explicit that it yields an algorithm suited for computer algebra systems.
