To summarize notation and terminology: | Terminology | | Notation | | Definition | | ------------------- |-| -------------------------------------------------------- |-| ------------------------------------------------------- | | morphism of sites | | $j_{U \to X} : X \to U $ | | | | underlying functor | | $j^t_{U \to X} : (Y_{S_X}/U) \to S_X $ | | | | sheaf restriction | | $(j_{U \to X})_* : Sh(X) \to Sh(U)$ | | direct image | | sheaf extension | | $j^{\ddagger}_{U \to X} : Sh(U) \to Sh(X)$ | | right adjoint to direct image | | sheaf inverse image | | $\overline{(j^t)^{\dagger}_{U \to X}} : Sh(U) \to Sh(X)$ | | left adjoint to direct image followed by sheafification | ## Remarks Notice the difference to the [[inverse image]] operation $$ j^{-1}_{U \to X} : Sh(U) \to Sh(X) \,. $$ ## References {#References} For instance section 17.6 of * Kashiwara, Schapira, _[[Categories and Sheaves]]_ * [[Stacks Project]], [Tag 00VC](http://stacks.math.columbia.edu/tag/00VC) and [Tag 00XF](http://stacks.math.columbia.edu/tag/00XF).</textarea> <p> <input id="alter_title" name="alter_title" onchange="toggleVisibility();" type="checkbox" value="1" /> <label for="alter_title">Change page name.</label><br/> <span id="title_change" style="display:none"><label for="new_name">New name:</label> <input id="new_name" name="new_name" onblur="addRedirect();" type="text" value="restriction and extension of sheaves" /></span> </p> <div> <p style="font-size: 0.8em; width: 70%;"> For non-trivial edits, please briefly describe your changes below.
