This problem has Hartshorne Height 1

### HAPPY

• a) In the discrete topology all points are open and closed, use this with the fact that any $U \subset X$ is irreducible so show all maps $U \to A$ must be constant.
• b) The hard part is to show the last surjection $0 \to F'(U) \to F(U) \to F''(U) \to 0$
• Since the map is locally surjective, the plan is to locally find a pre image that glues together.
• For a fixed $c \in F''(U)$, take two local preimages on $V\subset U$ and $W\subset U$ say b, b' respectively. Then $b - b'$ is in the kernel of $F(W \cap V)$ so comes from some section of $F'(W\cap V)$. (This is all a bit of a diagram chase)
• Use flasqueness to find a correction element for b,b'. Then use Zorn's lemma to show that all the local preimages can be corrected to be glued together.
• c) Surround the map you want to be surjective by a bunch of other surjective maps.
• d) Follows from definitions.
• e) Straightforward, the map $F \to G$ on an open set $U$ sends a section s to the product of all its restrictions $s_p \in F_p$ for $p \in U$.
