Generalities on sheaves - Where can I find the technology that can make this "proof" of Atiyah duality precise?
Fix $R$ an $E_{\infty}$ ring spectrum which admits a "six functor formalism" over a suitable class of spaces (by which I mean a context in which what I'm about to say can be made correct).
Let $X$ ...

Push forward of the constant sheaf for a Serre's fibration
Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a proper continuous map of topological spaces which is a Serre's fibration. $X$ and $Y$ may be assumed to be locally compact, $Y$ is connected topological manifold of finite ...
