We investigate weak approximation away from a finite set of places for a class of biquadratic fourfolds inside $\mathbb{P}^3 \times \mathbb{P}^2$, some of which appear in the recent work of Hassett--Pirutka--Tschinkel.

We prove that del Pezzo surfaces of degree $2$ over a field $k$ satisfy weak weak approximation if $k$ is a number field and the Hilbert property if $k$ is Hilbertian of characteristic zero, provided that they contain a $k$-rational point…

We show that closed hypersurfaces in Euclidean space with nonnegative scalar curvature are weakly mean convex. In contrast, the statement is no longer true if the scalar curvature is replaced by the k-th mean curvature, for k greater than…
