We provide an algorithm for calculating the unramified Brauer group of a homogeneous space $X$ of a semi-simple simply connected group $H$ with finite geometric stabiliser over any field of characteristic 0. When $k$ is a number field, we…
We show that the Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to strong approximation for all stacky curves over global fields with finite abelian fundamental groups. This includes all stacky curves of genus $g = \frac{1}{2}$, thus…
For schemes X over global or local fields, or over their rings of integers, K. Kato stated several conjectures on certain complexes of Gersten-Bloch-Ogus type, generalizing the fundamental exact sequence of Brauer groups for a global field.…
Embeddings of maximal tori into classical groups over global fields of characteristic not 2 are the subject matter of several recent papers, with special attention to the Hasse principle. The present paper gives necessary and sufficient…
Given systems of two (inhomogeneous) quadratic equations in four variables, it is known that the Hasse principle for integral points may fail. Sometimes this failure can be explained by some integral Brauer-Manin obstruction. We study the…
The aim of this note is to revisit the question of local-global principles for embeddings of etale algebras with involution into central simple algebras with involution over global fields of characteristic not 2. A necessary and sufficient…
An integer may be represented by a quadratic form over each ring of p-adic integers and over the reals without being represented by this quadratic form over the integers. More generally, such failure of a local-global principle may occur…
We study Tamagawa numbers and other invariants (especially Tate-Shafarevich sets) attached to commutative and pseudo-reductive groups over global function fields. In particular, we prove a simple formula for Tamagawa numbers of commutative…
We study the Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle and to weak approximation for 0-cycles on algebraic varieties that possess a fibration structure. The exactness of the local-to-global sequence $(E)$ of Chow groups of 0-cycles…
Let K/Q be a field extension of finite degree and let P(t) be a polynomial over Q that splits into linear factors over Q. We show that any smooth model of the affine variety defined by the equation N_{K/Q} (k) = P(t) satisfies the Hasse…
We study Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and to weak approximation with special regard to effectivity questions.
Let k be a field, X a smooth, projective k-variety. If X is geometrically rational, there is an injective map from the quotient of Brauer groups Br(X)/Br(k) into the first Galois cohomology group of the lattice given by the geometric Picard…
The Broecker-Prestel local-global principle characterizes weak isotropy of quadratic forms over a formally real field in terms of weak isotropy over the henselizations and isotropy over the real closures of that field. A hermitian analogue…
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.
We draw concrete consequences from our arithmetic duality for two-dimensional local rings with perfect residue field. These consequences include class field theory, Hasse principles for coverings and $K_{2}$ and a duality between divisor…
Given a group $G$ and a number field $K$, the Grunwald problem asks whether given field extensions of completions of $K$ at finitely many places can be approximated by a single field extension of $K$ with Galois group G. This can be viewed…
We construct a finite subgroup of Brauer-Manin obstruction for detecting the existence of integral points on integral models of homogeneous spaces of linear algebraic groups of multiplicative type. As application, the strong approximation…
We describe a practical algorithm for computing Brauer-Manin obstructions to the existence of rational points on hyperelliptic curves defined over number fields. This offers advantages over descent based methods in that its correctness does…
We consider local-global principles for torsors under linear algebraic groups, over function fields of curves over complete discretely valued fields. The obstruction to such a principle is a version of the Tate-Shafarevich group; and for…
We consider local-global principles for rational points on varieties, in particular torsors, over one-variable function fields over complete discretely valued fields. There are several notions of such principles, arising either from the…
