Leray's theorem

In algebraic geometry, Leray's theorem relates abstract sheaf cohomology with Čech cohomology.

Let ${\mathcal {F}}$ be a sheaf on a topological space $X$ and ${\mathcal {U}}$ an open cover of $X.$ If ${\mathcal {F}}$ is acyclic on every finite intersection of elements of ${\mathcal {U}}$ , then

{\check {H}}^{q}({\mathcal {U}},{\mathcal {F}})=H^{q}(X,{\mathcal {F}}),

where ${\check {H}}^{q}({\mathcal {U}},{\mathcal {F}})$ is the $q$ -th Čech cohomology group of ${\mathcal {F}}$ with respect to the open cover ${\mathcal {U}}.$
