Lemma 17.6.1. Let X be a topological space. Let Z \subset X be a closed subset. Denote i : Z \to X the inclusion map. The functor

i_* : \textit{Ab}(Z) \longrightarrow \textit{Ab}(X)

is exact, fully faithful, with essential image exactly those abelian sheaves whose support is contained in Z. The functor i^{-1} is a left inverse to i_*.

Proof. Exactness follows from the description of stalks in Sheaves, Lemma 6.32.1 and Lemma 17.3.1. The rest was shown in Sheaves, Lemma 6.32.3. \square
