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 $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of local fields. The Hasse-Arf theorem says that if Gal$(L/K)$ is abelian then the upper ramification breaks of $L/K$ must be integers. We prove the following converse to the Hasse-Arf theorem: Let $G$…

Let $k$ be a number field. We provide an asymptotic formula for the number of Galois extensions of $k$ with absolute discriminant bounded by some $X \geq 1$, as $X\to\infty$. We also provide an asymptotic formula for the closely related…

Let $k$ be a field and $T$ be an algebraic $k$-torus. In 1969, over a global field $k$, Voskresenskii proved that there exists an exact sequence $0\to A(T)\to H^1(k,{\rm Pic}\,\overline{X})^\vee\to Sha(T)\to 0$ where $A(T)$ is the kernel of…

We consider additive diophantine equations of degree $k$ in $s$ variables and establish that whenever $s\ge 3k+2$ then almost all such equations satisfy the Hasse principle. The equations that are soluble form a set of positive density, and…

We generalise a result of Heath-Brown and Skorobogatov to show that a certain class of varieties over a number field $k$ satisfies Weak Approximation and the Hasse Principle, provided there is no Brauer-Manin obstruction.

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…

Soit $K$ un corps global et $G$ un $K$-groupe fini r\'esoluble. Sous certaines hypoth\`eses sur une extension d\'eployant $G$, on d\'emontre que l'espace homog\`ene $V:=G'/G$ avec $G'$ un $K$-groupe semi-simple simplement connexe v\'erifie…

For any $r \in \mathbb{N}$ and almost all $k \in \mathbb{N}$ smaller than $x^r$, we show that the polynomial $f(n) = n^r + k$ takes the expected number of prime values as $n$ ranges from 1 to $x$. As a consequence, we deduce statements…

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…

In this paper we show the Hasse principle for the Brauer group of a purely transcendental extension field in one variable over an arbitrary field.

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…

Let $K$ be the fraction field of a two-dimensional henselian, excellent, equi-characteristic local domain. We prove a local-global principle for Galois cohomology with finite coefficients over $K$. We use classical machinery from \'etale…

Let $F_1,\dotsc,F_R$ be quadratic forms with integer coefficients in $n$ variables. When $n\geq 9R$ and the variety $V(F_1,\dotsc,F_R)$ is a smooth complete intersection, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in an…

We study a variant of the Hasse principle for finite Galois modules, allowing exceptional sets of positive density. For a Galois module whose underlying abelian group is isomorphic to $\mathbb{F}_p^{\oplus r}$ ($r \leq 2$), we show that the…

We show that for an irreducible cubic $f\in\mathbb Z[x]$ and a full norm form $\mathbf N(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$ for a number field $K/\mathbb Q$ satisfying certain hypotheses the variety $f(t)=\mathbf N(x_1,\ldots,x_k)\ne 0$ satisfies the Hasse…

Given a number field $k$, we show that, for many finite groups $G$, all the Galois extensions of $k$ with Galois group $G$ cannot be obtained by specializing any given finitely many Galois extensions $E/k(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/k$…

Let $K$ be a number field of degree $d$ so that $K/\mathbb Q$ is a Galois extension. The {\it normal basis theorem} states that $K$ has a $\mathbb Q$-basis consisting of algebraic conjugates, in fact $K$ contains infinitely many such bases.…

Building upon previous works of Andr{\'e} and Chudnovsky, we prove a general result concerning the approximations of values at rational points a/b of any G-function F with rational Taylor coefficients by fractions of the form n/(B…

Let $K$ be a global or local field, $E/K$ a Galois extension, and Br$(E)$ the Brauer group of $E$. This paper shows that if $K$ is a local field, $v$ is its natural discrete valuation, $v'$ is the valuation of $E$ extending $v$, and $q$ is…
