A variety $X/k$ is said to have the Hilbert Property if $X(k)$ is not thin. We shall describe some examples of varieties, for which the Hilbert Property is a new result. We give a criterion for determining when the Hilbert Property for a…

We prove that elliptic K3 surfaces over a number field which admit a second elliptic fibration satisfy the potential Hilbert property. Equivalently, the set of their rational points is not thin after a finite extension of the base field.…

A conjecture by Corvaja and Zannier predicts that smooth, projective, simply connected varieties over a number field with Zariski dense set of rational points have the Hilbert Property; this was proved by Demeio for Kummer surfaces which…

We prove that the Hilbert property is satisfied by certain del Pezzo surfaces of degree one and Picard rank 1 over fields finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$. We generalize results of the first author on elliptic surfaces and employ…

We review, under a perspective which appears different from previous ones, the so-called Hilbert Property (HP) for an algebraic variety (over a number field); this is linked to Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem and has important…

A variety X over a field K is of Hilbert type if the set of rational points X(K) is not thin. We prove that if f: X\to S is a dominant morphism of K-varieties and both S and all fibers f^{-1}(s), s in S(K), are of Hilbert type, then so is…

In this paper we prove that, over a Hilbertian ground field, surfaces with two conic fibrations whose fibres have non-zero intersection product have the Hilbert property. We then give an application of this result, namely the verification…

This is a survey of results on the Hilbert property of algebraic varieties, and variants of it.

Suppose that a Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface S of Picard rank one admits a rational Lagrangian fibration. We show that if the degree of the surface is sufficiently large compared to the number of points, then the Hilbert scheme…

In this paper we prove that the set of $S$-integral points of the smooth cubic surfaces in $\mathbb{A}^3$ over a number field $k$ is not thin, for suitable $k$ and $S$. As a corollary, we obtain results on the complement in $\mathbb{P}^2$…

We show that a Hilbert scheme of conics on a Fano fourfold double cover of $\mathbb{P}^2\times\mathbb{P}^2$ ramified along a divisor of bidegree $(2,2)$ admits a $\mathbb{P}^1$-fibration with base being a hyper-K\"{a}hler fourfold. We…

We pose the problem to determine explicit defining equations of various elliptic fibrations on a given $K3$ surface, and study the case of the Kummer surfaces of the product of two elliptic curves.

We classify elliptic fibrations birational to a nonsingular, minimal cubic surface over a field of characteristic zero. Our proof is adapted to provide computational techniques for the analysis of such fibrations, and we describe an…

We prove that for any of a wide class of elliptic surfaces $X$ defined over a number field $k$, if there is an algebraic point on $X$ that lies on only finitely many rational curves, then there is an algebraic point on $X$ that lies on no…

Given an elliptic surface over a number field, we study the collection of fibres whose Mordell-Weil rank is greater than the generic rank. Under suitable assumptions, we show that this collection is not thin. Our results apply to quadratic…

Let k be a global field. Let G be a connected linear algebraic k-group, assumed reductive when k is a function field. It follows from a result of a preprint by Bary-Soroker, Fehm and Petersen that when H is a smooth connected k-subgroup of…

Let k be a commutative ring in which 2 is invertible. We prove that the Hermitian K-theory of quadric hypersurfaces over k admits fibration sequences relating it to the base ring and to Clifford algebras equipped with various duality…

We determine the quantum multiplication with divisor classes on the Hilbert scheme of points on an elliptic surface $S \to \Sigma$ for all curve classes which are contracted by the induced fibration $S^{[n]} \to \Sigma^{[n]}$. The formula…

We extend the usual Hilbert property for varieties over fields to arithmetic schemes over integral domains by demanding the set of near-integral points (as defined by Vojta) to be non-thin. We then generalize results of…

Given a rational elliptic surface over a number field, we study the collection of fibers whose Mordell--Weil rank is greater than the generic rank. We give conditions on the singular fibers to assure that the collection of fibers for which…
