In this paper we inspect from closer the local and global points of the twists of the Klein quartic. For the local ones we use geometric arguments, while for the global ones we strongly use the modular interpretation of the twists. The main…

After a brief introduction to the classical theory of binary quadratic forms we use these results for proving (most of) the claims made by P\'epin in a series of articles on unsolvable quartic diophantine equations, and for constructing…

We consider the Kolyvagin cohomology classes associated to an elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ from a computational point of view. We explain how to go from a model of a class as an element of…

In response to a question of B. Poonen, we exhibit for each global field k an algebraic curve over k which violates the Hasse Principle. In fact we can find such examples among Atkin-Lehner twists of certain elliptic modular curves and --…

Quadric hypersurfaces are well-known to satisfy the Hasse principle. However, this is no longer true in the case of the Hasse principle for integral points, where counter-examples are known to exist in dimension 1 and 2. This work explores…

We show how to construct counter-examples to the Hasse principle over the field of rational numbers on Atkin-Lehner quotients of Shimura curves and on twisted forms of Shimura curves by Atkin-Lehner involutions. A particular example is the…

We show that certain Tate--Shafarevich groups are unramified which enables us to give an obstruction to the Hasse principle for torsors under tori over p-adic function fields.

We prove that for any t in Q, the curve 5 x^3 + 9 y^3 + 10 z^3 + 12((t^12-t^4-1)/(t^12-t^8-1))^3 (x+y+z)^3 = 0 in P^2 is a genus 1 curve violating the Hasse principle. An explicit Weierstrass model for its Jacobian E_t is given. The…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this paper, we are concerned with the behaviour of Fermat curves defined over ${\bf Q}$ given by equations $ax^p+by^p+cz^p=0$, with respect to the local-global Hasse principle. It is conjectured that there…

We unite two themes in dyadic analysis and number theory by studying an analogue of the failure of the Hasse principle in harmonic analysis. Explicitly, we construct an explicit family of measures on the real line that are $p$-adic and…

We give large families of Shimura curves defined by congruence conditions, all of whose twists lack $p$-adic points for some $p$. For each such curve we give analytically large families of counterexamples to the Hasse principle via the…

The Shafarevich-Tate group $W (\mathscr{A})$ measures the failure of the Hasse principle for an abelian variety $\mathscr{A}$. Using a correspondence between the abelian varieties and the higher dimensional non-commutative tori, we prove…

In this paper, we present a minimal counterexample to a conjecture of Perles that answers a question of Haase and Ziegler. The example is a simple 4-polytope that has an induced 3-connected 3-regular subgraph, whose graph complement is…

In this note we discuss some examples of non torsion and non algebraic cohomology classes for varieties over finite fields. The approach follows the construction of Atiyah-Hirzebruch and Totaro.

This is a survey focusing on the Hasse principle for divisibility of points in commutative algebraic groups and its relation with the Hasse principle for divisibility of elements of the Tate-Shavarevich group in the Weil-Ch\^{a}telet group.…

We study an infinite family of $j$-invariant zero elliptic curves $E_{D}:y^{2}=x^{3}+16D$ and their $\lambda$-isogenous curves $E_{D'}:y^{2}=x^{3}-27\cdot16D$, where $D$ and $D' = -3D$ are fundamental discriminants of a specific form, and…

We obtain bounds for the number of variables required to establish Hasse principles, both for existence of solutions and for asymptotic formulae, for systems of additive equations containing forms of differing degree but also multiple forms…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $n$ a positive integer. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $k$. It is known that the local-global divisibility by $p$ holds in $E/k$, but for powers of $p^n$ counterexamples may appear.…

Working on Berkovich analytic curves, we propose a geometric approach to the study of the Hasse principle over function fields of curves defined over a complete discretely valued field. Using it, we show the Hasse principle to be verified…

Using the graphs of prisms and Tutte Fragments, we construct an infinite family of hamiltonian and non-hamiltonian graphs in which Tutte's counterexample to Tait's conjecture appears in a certain sense as a minimal element. We observe that…
