For a continuous map f:X→Y and a sheaf F on X, the Leray spectral sequence is
E2p,q​=Hp(Y,Rqf∗​F)⟹Hp+q(X,F).
(1)
If every higher direct image vanishes, its edge maps identify Hp(X,F) with Hp(Y,f∗​F).

Leray spectral sequence by Wikipedia Bot  1
 View more
The Leray spectral sequence is a mathematical tool used in algebraic topology, specifically in the context of sheaf theory and the study of cohomological properties of spaces. It provides a way to compute the cohomology of a space that can be decomposed into simpler pieces, such as a fibration or a covering.
