  Cokernel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In many situations in abstract algebra, such as for abelian groups, vector spaces or modules, the cokernel of the homomorphism f : X → Y is the quotient of Y by the image of f.
The cokernel of a morphism f : X → Y is defined as the coequalizer of f and the zero morphism 0
In the category of groups, the cokernel of a group homomorphism f : G → H is the quotient of H by the normal closure of the image of f.

 Kernel (category theory)
Kernels are familiar in many categories from abstract algebra, such as the category of groups or the category of (left) modules over a fixed ring (including vector spaces over a fixed field).
That is, the kernel of a morphism is its cokernel in the opposite category[?], and vice versa.
Universal algebra defines a notion of kernel for homomorphisms between two algebraic structures of the same kind.

 L.L. Avramov Abstract   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
This condition can be restated in terms of linear algebra over the ring $R$ of algebraic functions vanishing on $X$: The cokernel $\Omega_{R\bold C$ of the linear map $R^r\to R^n$ induced by $J$ is projective, that is, splits off as a direct summand of $R^n$.
Once the algebraic nature of $\Omega_{R\bold C$ was realized (in the fifties), functorial constructions of a module of Kahler differentials $\Omega_{R\bold k}$ were proposed for each commutative algebra $R$ over any commutative ring $\bold k$.
In a familiar to mathematicians reversal of roles, the conclusion of the classical theorem was taken as a definition of smoothness for (some) algebras.

The Iwasawa algebra is the power series ring in one variable over the p-adic integers (p a fixed prime).
It has long been studied by number theorists in connection with Z_p-extensions of number fields.In particular, there is a beautiful classification theorem for finitely-generated modules over it that has been exploited to great advantage.
The Iwasawa algebra also arises in homotopy theory, as a ring of Adams operations on p-adic complex K-theory.

i is a kernel of p and p a cokernel of i and a load of other properties too.
As for the sheaves thing: the kernel or cokernel, whichever one it is is certainly a presheaf, that is on each open patch we can take (co)kernels but they do not necessarily patch together to give a global section.

Any finitely-generated module of finite rank over a PID R may be realized, up to isomorphism, as the cokernel of a an R-linear map R^{n} ----> R^{m}, hence as the cokernel of the R-linear map associated with an m \times n matrix in R. A good computer algebra system is an indispensible aid.
From the normal form one may read off that the cokernel of M is isomorphic to Z/3Z \times Z.
M may be regarded as a rational matrix, and the associated Q-linear map is an automorphism of Q^{3}.

 preadditive categories are all Abelian
In both, it mentions how to construct a map whose kernel and cokernel are both zero, but is not an isomorphism.
For vector bundles anyway, I think the point is that the pointwise kernel and cokernel may not have constant dimension, and therefore they do not comprise a bundle.
I read something like this: the category of vector bundles is equivalent to the category of finitely generated locally free OX-modules, where OX is the sheaf of functions (this looks very similar to Swan's theorem).
