Verdier duality is a concept from the field of algebraic geometry and consists of a duality theory for sheaves on a topological space, particularly in the context of schemes and general sheaf theory. It is named after Jean-Louis Verdier, who developed this theory in the context of derived categories. At its core, Verdier duality provides a way to define a duality between certain categories of sheaves.
