Zero-cycles are conjectured to satisfy weak approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction for proper smooth varieties defined over number fields. Roughly speaking, we prove that the conjecture is compatible for products of rationally…

In this article, we aim to largely complete the program of proving the Tate conjecture for surfaces of geometric genus one, by introducing techniques to analyze those surfaces whose "natural models" are singular. As an application, we show…

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…

We study a natural birational invariant for varieties over finite fields and show that its vanishing on projective space is equivalent to the Tate conjecture, the Beilinson conjecture, and the Grothendieck--Serre semi-simplicity conjecture…

In 1969 Artin and Mazur defined the \'etale homotopy type of an algebraic variety \cite{AMa69}. In this paper we define various obstructions to the local-global principle on a variety $X$ over a global field using the \'etale homotopy type…

Following recent work by E. Fuchs et al., we study the Brauer-Manin obstruction for integral points on Wehler K3 surfaces of Markoff type. In particular, we construct some families which fail the integral Hasse principle via the…

The descent method is one of the approaches to study the Brauer--Manin obstruction to the local--global principle and to weak approximation on varieties over number fields, by reducing the problem to ``descent varieties''. In recent lecture…

We study local-global principles for two notions of semi-integral points, termed Campana points and Darmon points. In particular, we develop a semi-integral version of the Brauer-Manin obstruction interpolating between Manin's classical…

We show that if over some number field there exists a certain diagonal plane cubic curve that is locally solvable everywhere, but that does not have points over any cubic galois extension of the number field, then the algebraic part of the…

Following [GS22], [LM20] and [CWX20], we study the Brauer-Manin obstruction for integral points on similar Markoff-type cubic surfaces. In particular, we construct a family of counterexamples to strong approximation which can be explained…

Given a smooth, proper family of varieties in characteristic $p>0$, and a cycle $z$ on a fibre of the family, we formulate a Variational Tate Conjecture characterising, in terms of the crystalline cycle class of $z$, whether $z$ extends…

We analyze the Brauer-Manin obstruction to rational points on the K3 surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}$ given by double covers of $\mathbb{P}^2$ ramified over a diagonal sextic. After finding an explicit set of generators for the geometric Picard…

We study Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and to weak approximation on algebraic surfaces over number fields.

We construct a (smooth, projective) surface over the field of rational numbers, which is a counterexample to the Hasse principle not accounted for by the Manin obstruction. The construction relies on the classical 4-descent on elliptic…

In this paper we study the existence of rational points for the family of K3 surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}$ given by $$w^2 = A_1x_1^6 + A_2x_2^6 + A_3x_3^6.$$ When the coefficients are ordered by height, we show that the Brauer group is almost…

Suppose $X$ is a torsor under an abelian variety $A$ over a number field. We show that any adelic point of $X$ that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of $X$ is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of $X$. We also show that if…

We prove the Tate conjecture for divisor classes and the Mumford-Tate conjecture for the cohomology in degree 2 for varieties with $h^{2,0}=1$ over a finitely generated field of characteristic 0, under a mild assumption on their moduli. As…

Skorobogatov constructed a bielliptic surface which is a counterexample to the Hasse principle not explained by the Brauer-Manin obstruction. We show that this surface has a $0$-cycle of degree 1, as predicted by a conjecture of…

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 local-global principles for torsors under reductive linear algebraic groups over semi-global fields; i.e., over one variable function fields over complete discretely valued fields. We provide conditions on the group and the…
