Product of Brauer--Manin obstruction for 0-cycles over number fields and function fields

Algebraic Geometry 2025-01-07 v1

Abstract

It is conjectured that the Brauer--Manin obstruction is expected to control the existence of 0-cycles of degree 1 on smooth proper varieties over number fields. In this paper, we prove that the existence of Brauer--Manin obstruction to Hasse principle for 0-cycles of degree 1 on the product of smooth (non-necessarily proper) varieties is equivalent to the simultaneous existence of such an obstruction on each factor. We also prove an analogous statement for smooth varieties defined over function fields of C((t))\mathbb{C}((t))-curves.
