The restriction maps of this point sheaf satisfy the presheaf composition identities: every possible restriction is either the identity on or the unique map to the zero group. We check the sheaf identity and gluing axioms for any open cover .
If , every section group in the cover is zero, so a compatible family has the unique zero gluing. If , at least one contains . For any two members containing , their intersection also contains , and compatibility forces their complex values to be equal, since the restriction maps there are identities. Call the common value . Members not containing have only the zero section. The section restricts to every member of the family, proving existence of a gluing; its restriction to any member containing determines , proving uniqueness.
This also proves local identity for sections, and handles the empty open set. Hence
It is the point-pushforward sheaf, usually called a skyscraper sheaf. Its restrictions are all surjective, so it is also a flasque sheaf. No separation assumption on is needed for the preceding sheaf-axiom argument.
