Let $R$ be the incidence algebra of the poset $Σ$ over a field $k$. Corresponding to the Verdier duality for constructible sheaves on $Σ$, we have a dualizing complex $w \in D^b(mod_{R \otimes_k R})$ giving a duality functor from $D^b(mod_R)$ to itself. $w$ satisfies the Auslander condition. Our duality is somewhat analogous to the Serre duality for projective schemes ($\emptyset$ plays a similar role to that of "irrelevant ideals"). If $H^i(w) \ne 0$ for exactly one $i$, then the underlying topological space of $Σ$ is Cohen-Macaulay (in the sense of the Stanley-Reisner ring theory). The converse also holds when $Σ$ is a simplicial complex. $R$ is always a Koszul ring with $R^! \cong R^op$. The relation between the Koszul duality for $R$ and the Verdier duality is discussed. This result is a variant of a theorem of Vybornov. The Mobius function of the poset $\hatΣ$ is also discussed.18 pages. The results are almost same.
