Let $X$ be a rationally connected algebraic variety, defined over a number field $k$. We find a relation between the arithmetic of rational points on $X$ and the arithmetic of zero-cycles. More precisely, we consider the following…

We construct a conic bundle over an elliptic curve over a real quadratic field that is a counterexample to the Hasse principle not explained by the \'etale Brauer-Manin obstruction. We also give simple examples of threefolds with the same…

Admettant l'hypoth\`ese de Schinzel et la finitude des groupes de Tate-Shafarevich des courbes elliptiques sur les corps de nombres, toute intersection lisse de deux quadriques dans l'espace projectif de dimension n satisfait au principe de…

We prove the Hasse principle for a smooth projective variety $X\subset \PP^{n-1}_\Q$ defined by a system of two cubic forms $F,G$ as long as $n\geq 39$. The main tool here is the development of a version of Kloosterman refinement for a…

We prove the Hasse principle for a smooth proper model of a geometrically integral non-conical intersection of two quadrics in the projective space of dimension 7 over a number field. This result generalizes the result of Heath-Brown who…

In this work we introduce the concept of admissible integral $k$-mesh for sampling differential forms with contiuous coefficients on a real body $E\subset \R^n$, and provide two techniques for the construction of admissible integral…

We show that, over every number field, the degree four del Pezzo surfaces that violate the Hasse principle are Zariski dense in the moduli scheme.

We develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces. Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We…

By using the integration by parts formula of a Markov operator, the closability of quadratic forms associated to the corresponding invariant probability measure is proved. The general result is applied to the study of semilinear SPDEs,…

Let X be a toric variety over a number field k with \kbar[X]^\times=\kbar^\times. Let W\subset X be a closed subset of codimension at least 2. We prove that X\setminus W satisfies strong approximation with algebraic Brauer--Manin…

We discuss the role of primes of good reduction in the existence of the Brauer--Manin obstruction to weak approximation for varieties defined over number fields. Following Bright and Newton, we give some necessaries conditions on the…

We prove a Diophantine approximation inequality for closed subschemes on surfaces which can be viewed as a joint generalization of recent inequalities of Ru-Vojta and Heier-Levin in this context. As applications, we study various…

For a quasi-projective smooth geometrically integral variety over a number field $k$, we prove that the iterated descent obstruction is equivalent to the descent obstruction. This generalizes a result of Skorobogatov, and this answers an…

We describe a method to compute the Brauer-Manin obstruction for smooth cubic surfaces over $\bbQ$ such that $\Br(S)/\Br(\bbQ)$ is of order two or four. This covers the vast majority of the cases when this group is non-zero. Our approach is…

We prove an analogue of a theorem of A. Pollington and S. Velani ('05), furnishing an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of certain subsets of the set of very well intrinsically approximable points on a quadratic hypersurface. The proof…

We reduce the question about whether the Brauer-Manin obstruction to weak approximation for homogeneous spaces is the only obstruction to the "simpler" question of the particular case of homogeneous spaces of $\mathrm{SL}_n$ with finite…

Let $n\geq 2$, and let $f$ be a polynomial of degree at least 2 with coefficients in a number field or a characteristic 0 function field $K$. We present two arithmetic applications of a recent theorem of Medvedev-Scanlon to the dynamics of…

This work deals with the Mann's stochastic iteration algorithm under strong mixing random errors. We establish the Fuk-Nagaev's inequalities that enable us to prove the almost complete convergence with its corresponding rate of convergence.…

We obtain weak rates for approximation of an integral functional of a Markov process by integral sums. An assumption on the process is formulated only in terms of its transition probability density, and, therefore, our approach is not…

We study equations in four variables (x,y,z,t) of the shape q(x,y,z)=P(t), where q(x,y,z) is an indefinite ternary quadratic form over the integers and P(t) is a polynomial in one variable with integral coefficients. If P(t) is not the…
