Abstract
We prove that a positive proportion of hypersurfaces in products of projective spaces over are everywhere locally soluble, for almost all multidegrees and dimensions, as a generalization of a theorem of Poonen and Voloch. We also study the specific case of genus curves in defined over , represented as bidegree -forms, and show that the proportion of everywhere locally soluble such curves is approximately . The proportion of these curves in soluble over is a rational function of for each finite prime . Finally, we include some experimental data on the Hasse principle for these curves.
