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 study the integral Brauer--Manin obstruction for affine diagonal cubic surfaces, which we employ to construct the first counterexamples to the integral Hasse principle in this setting. We then count in three natural ways how such…

We establish new upper bounds on the number of failures of the integral Hasse principle within the family of Markoff type cubic surfaces $x^2+ y^2+ z^2- xyz= a$ with $|a|\leq A$ as $A\to \infty$. Our bound improves upon existing work of…

We establish the Hasse principle for smooth projective quartic hypersurfaces of dimension greater than or equal to 28 defined over $\mathbb{Q}$.

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…

We investigate the family of surfaces defined by the affine equation $$Y^2 + Z^2 = (aT^2 + b)(cT^2 +d)$$ where $\vert ad-bc \vert=1$ and develop an asymptotic formula for the frequency of Hasse principle failures. We show that a positive…

We prove new cases of the Hasse principle for Kummer surfaces constructed from 2-coverings of Jacobians of genus 2 curves, assuming finiteness of relevant Tate--Shafarevich groups. Under the same assumption, we deduce the Hasse principle…

We construct new examples of cubic surfaces, for which the Hasse principle fails. Thereby, we show that, over every number field, the counterexamples to the Hasse principle are Zariski dense in the moduli scheme of non-singular cubic…

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…

Ch\^atelet surfaces provide a rich source of geometrically rational surfaces which do not always satisfy the Hasse principle. Restricting attention to a special class of Ch\^atelet surfaces, we investigate the frequency that such…

For any finite field k of characteristic exceeding 3, the Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for non-singular cubic hypersurfaces X over the function field k(t), provided that X has dimension at least 6.

We extend some parts of the representation theory for integral quadratic forms over the ring of integers of a number field to the case over the coordinate ring $k[C]$ of an affine curve $C$ over a general base field $k$. By using the genus…

We investigate the Hasse principle for complete intersections cut out by a quadric and cubic hypersurface defined over the rational numbers.

We establish an analytic Hasse principle for linear spaces of affine dimension m on a complete intersection over an algebraic field extension K of Q. The number of variables required to do this is no larger than what is known for the…

For integers $k$, we consider the affine cubic surface $V_{k}$ given by $M({\bf x})=x_{1}^2 + x_{2}^2 +x_{3}^2 -x_{1}x_{2}x_{3}=k$. We show that for almost all $k$ the Hasse Principle holds, namely that $V_{k}(\mathbb{Z})$ is non-empty if…

In this paper, we consider the following problem: Does there exist a cubic surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ which contains no line over $\mathbb{Q}$, yet contains a line over every completion of $\mathbb{Q}$? This question may be interpreted as…

We generalize L.J. Mordell's construction of cubic surfaces for which the Hasse principle fails.

An affine hypersurface is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup of the automorphism group of the tangent space, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator…

When all ternary cubic forms over $\mathbb Z$ are ordered by the heights of their coefficients, we show that a positive proportion of them fail the Hasse principle, i.e., they have a zero over every completion of $\mathbb Q$ but no zero…

Given an algebraic curve C/Q having points everywhere locally and endowed with a suitable involution, we show that there exists a positive density family of prime quadratic twists of C violating the Hasse principle. The result applies in…
