We study Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and to weak approximation with special regard to effectivity questions.
Let $K/k$ be an extension of number fields, and let $P(t)$ be a quadratic polynomial over $k$. Let $X$ be the affine variety defined by $P(t) = N_{K/k}(\mathbf{z})$. We study the Hasse principle and weak approximation for $X$ in three…
Let $L$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We calculate the proportion of polynomials of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ that are everywhere locally norms from $L/\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ which fail to be global norms from…
On varieties defined over number fields, we consider obstructions to the Hasse principle given by subgroups of their Brauer groups. Given an arbitrary pair of non-zero finite abelian groups $B_0\subset B$, we prove the existence of a…
It is well-known that the Hasse principle holds for quadric hypersurfaces. The Hasse principle fails for integral points on smooth quadric hypersurfaces of dimension 2 but the failure can be completely explained by the Brauer-Manin…
We give a geometric proof that Hasse principle holds for the following varieties defined over global function fields: smooth quadric hypersurfaces in odd characteristic, smooth cubic hypersurfaces of dimension at least $4$ in characteristic…
The aim of this note is to revisit the question of local-global principles for embeddings of etale algebras with involution into central simple algebras with involution over global fields of characteristic not 2. A necessary and sufficient…
We prove that, for every $n \geq 5$, the Hasse norm principle holds for a degree $n$ extension $K/k$ of number fields with normal closure $F$ such that $\operatorname{Gal}(F/k) \cong A_n$. We also show the validity of weak approximation for…
For schemes X over global or local fields, or over their rings of integers, K. Kato stated several conjectures on certain complexes of Gersten-Bloch-Ogus type, generalizing the fundamental exact sequence of Brauer groups for a global field.…
We prove that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to the Hasse principle for homogeneous spaces with nilpotent stabilizer. We thus generalize recent results by Harpaz and Wittenberg on finite "hyper-solvable" stabilizers.…
We study strong approximation of the equation N_{L/k}(x) = \prod_{i=1}^n p_i(t) where L/k is a finite extension of number fields and p_i(t)'s are distinct irreducible polynomials over k. We prove this equation satisfies strong approximation…
We study the local-global principle for zero-cycles of degree 1 on certain varieties fibered over the projective space. Among other applications, we prove that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to the Hasse principle and…
Following the analogies between knots and primes, 3-manifolds and number rings in arithmetic topology, we show a topological analogue of the Hasse norm principle for finite cyclic coverings of 3-manifolds, which was originally stated for…
For varieties given by an equation N_{K/k}(\Xi)=P(t), where N_{K/k} is the norm form attached to a field extension K/k and P(t) in k[t] is a polynomial, three topics have been investigated: (1) computation of the unramified Brauer group of…
Let $A$ be a finite, abelian group. We show that the density of $A$-extensions satisfying the Hasse norm principle exists, when the extensions are ordered by discriminant. This strengthens earlier work of Frei--Loughran--Newton \cite{FLN},…
Let $k$ be a number field. We construct homogeneous spaces of $SL_{n,k}$ with finite nilpotent non-abelian stabilizers for which the Brauer-Manin obstruction does not explain the failure of strong approximation (resp. the failure of the…
Fix $k,s,n\in \mathbb N$, and consider non-zero integers $c_1,\ldots ,c_s$, not all of the same sign. Provided that $s\ge k(k+1)$, we establish a Hasse principle for the existence of lines having integral coordinates lying on the affine…
A central question in Arithmetic geometry is to determine for which polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[t]$ and which number fields $K$ the Hasse principle holds for the affine equation $f(t) = N_{K/\mathbb{Q}}(\boldsymbol{x}) \neq 0$. Whilst…
Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2. We prove a local-global principle for the existence of self-dual normal bases, and more generally for the isomorphism of G-trace forms, of G-Galois algebras over k.
We use an explicit description of the Brauer-Manin obstruction, recently obtained by Colliot-Th\'el\`ene, to study the density of varieties in a certain family which do not satisfy the Hasse principle.
