Abstract
In this article, we extend the van Hamel-Lichtenbaum duality theorem to (not necessarily smooth) proper and geometrically integral varieties defined over a -adic field . More precisely, we prove that for such variety there exists a natural continuous perfect pairing where is the algebraic Brauer group of , is the zeroth group of truncated homology , is the structure morphism of , and is the profinite completion functor.
