Let $k$ be a field. Let $A=\prod_{i=1}^r K_i$ and $B=\prod_{j=1}^s E_j$ be \'etale $k$-algebras where $K_i$ and $E_j$ are finite separable field extensions of $k$ with $[K_i:k]=m_i$ and $[E_j:k]=n_j$. Let…
A folklore conjecture asserts the existence of a constant $c_n > 0$ such that $\#\mathcal{F}_n(X) \sim c_n X$ as $X\to \infty$, where $\mathcal{F}_n(X)$ is the set of degree $n$ extensions $K/\mathbb{Q}$ with discriminant bounded by $X$.…
In this paper, we study the properties of weak approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction and the Hasse principle with Brauer-Manin obstruction for surfaces with respect to field extensions of number fields. We assume a conjecture of M.…
Let $K$ be a field complete with respect to a nonarchimedean real-valued norm, and let $L/K$ be an algebraic extension. We show that there is a unique norm on $L$ extending the given norm on $K$, with an explicit description. As an…
Given a number field $k$, a finitely generated subgroup $\mathcal{A}\subseteq k^\times$, and an integer $n\geq 3$, we study the distribution of $S_n$-extensions of $k$ such that the elements of $\mathcal{A}$ are norms. For $n\leq 5$, and…
Conditionally on the $abc$ conjecture, we generalize previous work of Clark and the author to show that a superelliptic curve $C: y^n = f(x)$ of sufficiently high genus has infinitely many twists violating the Hasse Principle if and only if…
A formula is proved for the number of linear factors over $\mathbb{F}_l$ of the Hasse invariant of the Tate normal form $E_5(b)$ for a point of order $5$, as a polynomial in the parameter $b$, in terms of the class number of the imaginary…
Given a generic field extension F/k of degree n>3 (i.e. the Galois group of the normal closure of F is isomorphic to the symmetric group $S_n$), we prove that the norm torus, defined as the kernel of the norm map $N:R_{F/k}(G_m)\to\G_m$, is…
With probability 1, we assess the average behaviour of various arithmetic functions at the values of degree d polynomials f that are ordered by height. This allows us to establish averaged versions of the Bateman-Horn conjecture, the…
It is known that the Brauer--Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle is vacuous for smooth Fano hypersurfaces of dimension at least $3$ over any number field. Moreover, for such varieties it follows from a general conjecture of…
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…
Let $L_0$ be a densely defined minimal linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$. We prove theorem that if there exists at least one correct extension $L_S$ of $L_0$ with the property $D(L_S)=D(L_S^*)$, then we can describe all correct…
Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2. The classical Hasse-Minkowski theorem states that if two quadratic forms become isomorphic over all the completions of k, then they are isomorphic over k as well. It is natural to ask whether…
Let $L/K$ be an extension of complete discrete valuation fields of positive characteristic, and assume that the residue field of $K$ is perfect. The residue field of $L$ is not assumed to be perfect. In this paper, we show that the…
We give a revised version of Schmidt's treatment of forms in many variables, which allows us to prove a Hasse principle under more lenient conditions on the number of variables than what had previously been thought possible with these…
An 1861 theorem of Hermite asserts that for every field extension $E/F$ of degree $5$ there exists an element of $E$ whose minimal polynomial over $F$ is of the form $f(x) = x^5 + c_2 x^3 + c_4 x + c_5$ for some $c_2, c_4, c_5 \in F$. We…
We prove a Hasse principle for binary direct summands of the Chow motive of a smooth projective quadric Q over a number field F. Besides, we show that such summands are twists of Rost motives. In the case when F has at most one real…
We investigate the norm maps of algebraic even $K$-groups of finite extensions of number fields. Namely, we show that they are surjective in most situations. In the event that they are not surjective, we give a criterion in determining when…
We generalize a result of F.\ Legrand about the existence of non-parametric Galois extensions for a given group $G$. More precisely, for a $K$-regular Galois extension $F|K(t)$, we consider the translates $F(s)|K(s)$ by an extension…
Given a field $k$ and a finite group $H$, {\it{an $H$-parametric extension over $k$}} is a finite Galois extension of $k(T)$ of Galois group containing $H$ which is regular over $k$ and has all the Galois extensions of $k$ of group $H$…
