# Residue currents on analytic spaces Licentiate thesis, 2010

This thesis concerns residue currents on analytic spaces. In the first paper, we construct Coleff-Herrera products and Bochner-Martinelli type currents associated with a weakly holomorphic mapping, and show that these currents satisfy well-known properties from the strongly holomorphic case. This includes the transformation law, the Poincaré-Lelong formula and the equivalence of the Coleff-Herrera product and the Bochner-Martinelli current associated with a complete intersection of weakly holomorphic functions. In the second paper, we discuss the duality theorem on singular varieties. In the case of a complex manifold, the duality theorem, proven by Dickenstein-Sessa and Passare, says that the annihilator of the Coleff-Herrera product associated with a complete intersection $f$ equals the ideal generated by $f$. We give sufficient and in many cases necessary conditions in terms of certain singularity subvarieties of the sheaf $\mathcal{O}_Z$ for when the duality theorem holds on a singular variety $Z$.
