Blown-up Čech cohomology and Cartan's Theorem B on real algebraic varieties

Tomasz Kowalczyk

Abstract

We introduce a concept of blown-up Čech cohomology for coherent sheaves of homological dimension $\leq 1$ and some quasi-coherent sheaves on a non-singular real affine variety. Its construction involves a directed set of multi-blowups. We establish, in particular, long exact cohomology sequence and Cartan's Theorem B. Finally, some applications are provided, including universal solution to the first Cousin problem (after blowing up).

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $f : X \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a regular function on a non-singular real algebraic variety $X$. Then there exists a multi-blowup $\sigma : X_\sigma \rightarrow X$ such that $f^\sigma:=f \circ \sigma$ is a simple normal crossing. $\square$
