Abstract
Cohomology groups of the space X with values in the sheaf F (of abelian groups) over X were defined by Leray following the earlier definition of Čech. Later this cohomology was codified and perfected by H. Cartan and J.-P. Serre. Here we will briefly sketch the leading ideas; for details we send the reader to many excellent textbooks and monographs.
