Lemma 18.19.3. Let $(\mathcal{C}, \mathcal{O})$ be a ringed site. Let $U \in \mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{C})$. The functor $j_{U!} : \textit{Mod}(\mathcal{O}_ U) \to \textit{Mod}(\mathcal{O})$ is exact.

Proof. Since $j_{U!}$ is a left adjoint to $j_ U^*$ we see that it is right exact (see Categories, Lemma 4.24.6 and Homology, Section 12.7). Hence it suffices to show that if $\mathcal{G}_1 \to \mathcal{G}_2$ is an injective map of $\mathcal{O}_ U$-modules, then $j_{U!}\mathcal{G}_1 \to j_{U!}\mathcal{G}_2$ is injective. The map on sections of presheaves over an object $V$ (as in Lemma 18.19.2) is the map

$\bigoplus \nolimits _{\varphi \in \mathop{Mor}\nolimits _\mathcal {C}(V, U)} \mathcal{G}_1(V \xrightarrow {\varphi } U) \longrightarrow \bigoplus \nolimits _{\varphi \in \mathop{Mor}\nolimits _\mathcal {C}(V, U)} \mathcal{G}_2(V \xrightarrow {\varphi } U)$

which is injective by assumption. Since sheafification is exact by Lemma 18.11.2 we conclude $j_{U!}\mathcal{G}_1 \to j_{U!}\mathcal{G}_2$ is injective and we win. $\square$
