We reinterpret Kim's non-abelian reciprocity maps for algebraic varieties as obstruction towers of mapping spaces of etale homotopy types, removing technical hypotheses such as global basepoints and cohomological constraints. We then extend…

We construct an analogue of the classical descent theory of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Sansuc in which algebraic tori are replaced with finite supersolvable groups. As an application, we show that rational points are dense in the Brauer-Manin…

Strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction is established for smooth varieties containing a connected linear algebraic group with a compatible action.

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…

In 2011, V\`arilly-Alvarado and the last author constructed an Enriques surface $X$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with an \'etale-Brauer obstruction to the Hasse principle and no algebraic Brauer-Manin obstruction. In this paper, we show that the…

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 introduce the notion of refined unramified cohomology of algebraic schemes and prove comparison theorems that identify some of these groups with cycle groups. This recovers for cycles of low codimensions on smooth projective varieties…

We establish a unified group-theoretic framework bridging the arithmetic homotopy exact sequence of a variety and the Birman exact sequence of a surface. Within this framework, we reinterpret classical arithmetic notions - such as the…

Let $k$ be a number field, let $X$ be a Kummer variety over $k$, and let $\delta$ be an odd integer. In the spirit of a result by Yongqi Liang, we relate the arithmetic of rational points over finite extensions of $k$ to that of zero-cycles…

Using equivariant obstruction theory we construct equivariant maps from certain classifying spaces to representation spheres for cyclic groups, product of elementary Abelian groups and dihedral groups. Restricting them to finite skeleta…

In this paper we develop the obstruction theory for lifting complexes, up to quasi-isomorphism, to derived categories of flat nilpotent deformations of abelian categories. As a particular case we also obtain the corresponding obstruction…

Let F be a global field. In this work, we show that the Brauer-Manin condition on adelic points for subvarieties of a torus T over F cuts out exactly the rational points, if either F is a function field or, if F is the field of rational…

The \'etale Brauer\textendash Manin obstruction is equivalent to each other among Weil restrictions of an arbitrarily given quasi-projective algebraic variety defined over a number field.

We extend the Galois-theoretic Borovoi-Springer interpretation of algebraic bands to a class of \'etale-locally represented bands on the fppf site of an arbitrary field $k$, which we call separable bands. Next, a band represented…

Many examples of obstruction theory can be formulated as the study of when a lift exists in a commutative square. Typically, one of the maps is a cofibration of some sort and the opposite map is a fibration, and there is a functorial…

We determine the odd order torsion subgroup of the Brauer group of diagonal quartic surfaces over the field of rational numbers. We show that a non-constant Brauer element of odd order always obstructs weak approximation but never the Hasse…

We have previously shown that the isomorphism classes of orientable locally trivial fields of $C^*$-algebras over a compact metrizable space $X$ with fiber $D\otimes \mathbb{K}$, where $D$ is a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra, form an…

We prove that all points of a toroidal compactification lying over 0-dimensional cusps are rationally equivalent in the integral Chow group for most classical modular varieties (Siegel, Hilbert, orthogonal, Hermitian, quaternionic). This…

G.W. Mackey's celebrated obstruction theory for projective representations of locally compact groups was remarkably generalized by J. M. G. Fell and R. S. Doran to the wide area of saturated Banach *-algebraic bundles. Analogous obstruction…

We explain how it is possible to study $\mathrm{U}\!\left(1\right)$ BF theory over a connected closed oriented smooth $3$-manifold in the formalism of path integral thanks to Deligne-Beilinson cohomology. We show how we can…
