We consider a system of $R$ cubic forms in $n$ variables, with integer coefficients, which define a smooth complete intersection in projective space. Provided $n\geq 25R$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in…
We consider systems $\vec{F}(\vec{x})$ of $R$ homogeneous forms of the same degree $d$ in $n$ variables with integral coefficients. If $n\geq d2^dR+R$ and the coefficients of $\vec{F}$ lie in an explicit Zariski open set, we give a…

We establish the Hasse Principle for systems of r simultaneous diagonal cubic equations whenever the number of variables exceeds 6r and the associated coefficient matrix contains no singular r x r submatrix, thereby achieving the…

We prove the Hasse principle and weak approximation for varieties defined over number fields by the nonsingular intersection of pairs of quadratic forms in 8 variables. The argument develops work of Colliot-Thelene, Sansuc and…
It is classically known that the circle method produces an asymptotic for the number of representations of a tuple of integers $(n_1,\ldots,n_R)$ by a system of quadratic forms $Q_1,\ldots, Q_R$ in $k$ variables, as long as $k$ is…
Let $\psi$ and $F$ be positive definite forms with integral coefficients of equal degree. Using the circle method, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of identical representations of $\psi$ by $F$, provided $\psi$ is…
This paper proves the Hasse principle and weak approximation for varieties defined by the smooth intersection of three quadratics in at least 19 variables, over arbitrary number fields.
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…
The Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for equations of the shape P(t)=N(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4), where P is an irreducible quadratic polynomial in one variable and N is a norm form associated to a quartic extension of the…
Let F be a field of characteristic different from 2. The u-invariant and the Hasse number of a field F are classical and important field invariants pertaining to quadratic forms. These invariants measure the suprema of dimensions of…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of representations of squares by nonsingular cubic forms in six or more variables. The main ingredients of the proof are Heath-Brown's form of the Circle Method and various exponential sum…
By means of the Hardy-Littlewood method, we apply a new mean value theorem for exponential sums to confirm the truth, over the rational numbers, of the Hasse principle for pairs of diagonal cubic forms in thirteen or more variables.
We derive, via the Hardy-Littlewood method, an asymptotic formula for the number of integral zeros of a particular class of weighted quartic forms under the assumption of non-singular local solubility. Our polynomials $F({\mathbf…

Let $\mathcal{F}=\{f_1,\ldots,f_R\}$ be a family of forms of odd degrees at most $d$ in $s$ variables. We study the solutions to the system $f_1(\mathbf{x})=\ldots=f_R(\mathbf{x})=0$ of the form $x_i=y_ip_i$ with $|y_i|\leq Y_\mathcal{F}$…
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…
