Convolution structures and arithmetic cohomology
arXiv:math/9807151
Abstract
In this paper we construct arithmetic analogs of the Riemann-Roch theorem and Serre's duality for line bundles. This improves on the works of Tate and van der Geer - Schoof. We define and as some convolution of measures structures. The is defined by a procedure very similar to the usual Cech cohomology. We get Serre's duality as Pontryagin duality of convolution structures. We get separately Riemann-Roch formula and Serre's duality. Instead of using the Poisson summation formula, we basically reprove it. The whole theory is pretty much parallel to the geometric case.
Extra section on harmonic analysis included to make the paper more accessible for arithmetic geometers. Also, the ghost-spaces of second kind are treated somewhat differently
