Abstract

Let S be a site. We introduce the notion of extensions of strictly commutative Picard S-stacks. We define the pull-back, the push-down, and the sum of such extensions and we compute their homological interpretation: if P and Q are two strictly commutative Picard S-stacks, the equivalence classes of extensions of P by Q are parametrized by the cohomology group Ext1([P],[Q]), where [P] and [Q] are the complex associated to P and Q respectively.
