Abstract

In this paper we use recently developed calculus of residue currents together with integral formulas to give a new explicit analytic realization, as well as a new analytic proof of Serre duality on any reduced pure nn-dimensional paracompact complex space XX. At the core of the paper is the introduction of concrete fine sheaves BXn,q\mathscr{B}_X^{n,q} of certain currents on XX of bidegree (n,q)(n,q), such that the Dolbeault complex (BXn,,ˉ)(\mathscr{B}_X^{n,\bullet},\,\bar{\partial}) becomes, in a certain sense, a dualizing complex. In particular, if XX is Cohen-Macaulay (e.g., Gorenstein or a complete intersection) then (BXn,,ˉ)(\mathscr{B}_X^{n,\bullet},\,\bar{\partial}) is an explicit fine resolution of the Grothendieck dualizing sheaf.
