Artin's flat duality conjecture for surfaces

Let π ⁣:XSpeck\pi\colon X\rightarrow\operatorname{Spec} k be a smooth complete surface over a perfect field kk of characteristic p0p\neq0. Let Hfli(X,μp)H_{\mathrm{fl}}^i(X,\mu_p) denote flat cohomology. Artin's flat duality conjecture. When kk is algebraically closed, there is a 44-dimensional duality for the finite part of Hfli(X,μp)H_{\mathrm{fl}}^i(X,\mu_p) and a 55-dimensional duality for the vector-space part. The source says this rough formulation should be restated in derived-category terms and records that the precise statement is proved by Bragg and Olsson (2021).
