A question in the proof of equivalence of Cech cohomology and Sheaf cohomology

218 Views Asked by At

While proving the equivalence of Sheaf cohomology (defined by using injective resolutions), Tennison (in his book 'Sheaf Theory' on page 146) says :

If we let $S$ be a presheaf such that the sequence $ 0 \to R' \to R \to S \to 0 $ is exact in Presh/X, we see that $S$ has as sheafification the zero sheaf and there is an exact sequence < long exact sequence corresponding to the above short exxact sequence>.

Here $R' \to R$ is the sheafification map of the presheaf $R'$. I can understand that $S$ can be shosen to be the Presheaf cokernel of the sheafification map. My question is : But how do we know that this map is exact at $R'$ ? Edit : As pointed out in the comment, this need not be exact at $R'$. So the question is : How do we tweak the proof in the book so that it becomes valid ?
