Lemma 30.4.6. Let f : X \to S be a morphism of schemes. Assume that f is quasi-separated and quasi-compact. Assume S is affine. For any quasi-coherent \mathcal{O}_ X-module \mathcal{F} we have

H^ q(X, \mathcal{F}) = H^0(S, R^ qf_*\mathcal{F})

for all q \in \mathbf{Z}.

Proof. Consider the Leray spectral sequence E_2^{p, q} = H^ p(S, R^ qf_*\mathcal{F}) converging to H^{p + q}(X, \mathcal{F}), see Cohomology, Lemma 20.13.4. By Lemma 30.4.5 we see that the sheaves R^ qf_*\mathcal{F} are quasi-coherent. By Lemma 30.2.2 we see that E_2^{p, q} = 0 when p > 0. Hence the spectral sequence degenerates at E_2 and we win. See also Cohomology, Lemma 20.13.6 (2) for the general principle. \square

Suggested slogan: The cohomology of a scheme over an affine base agrees with the global sections of its derived pushforward.
