Abstract

We adapt ideas from Ekedahl [Eke84] to prove a Serre-type duality for Witt-divisorial sheaves of $\mathbb{Q}$‑Cartier divisors on a smooth projective variety over a perfect field of finite characteristic. We also explain its relationship to Tanaka’s vanishing theorems [Tan20].

Keywords

de Rham–Witt complex, Serre duality, Kodaira vanishing theorem, positive characteristic
