Strong approximation and descent [PDF]
We introduce descent methods to the study of strong approximation on algebraic varieties. We apply them to two classes of varieties defined by P(t)=N_{K/k}(z): firstly for quartic extensions of number fields K/k and quadratic polynomials P(t) in one ...

Boundedness of the p-primary torsion of the Brauer group of products of varieties
Let k be a field finitely generated over its prime subfield. We prove that the quotient of the Brauer group of a product of varieties over k by the sum of the images of the Brauer groups of factors has finite exponent.

Vanishing of Brauer groups of moduli stacks of stable curves
We show that the cohomological Brauer groups of the moduli stacks of stable genus g curves over the integers and an algebraic closure of the rational numbers vanish for any $g\geq 2$ .

Bad reduction of the Brauer-Manin obstruction [PDF]
We relate the Brauer group of a smooth variety over a p-adic field to the geometry of the special fibre of a regular model, using the purity theorem in \'etale cohomology. As an illustration, we describe how the Brauer group of a smooth del Pezzo surface

On the Brauer-Manin obstruction for degree four del Pezzo surfaces
We show that, for every integer $1 \leq d \leq 4$ and every finite set $S$ of places, there exists a degree $d$ del Pezzo surface $X$ over ${\mathbb Q}$ such that ${\rm Br}(X)/{\rm Br}({\mathbb Q}) \cong {\mathbb Z}/2{\mathbb Z}$ and the Brauer-Manin ...

On the Brauer group of diagonal quartic surfaces
We obtain an easy sufficient condition for the Brauer group of a diagonal quartic surface D over Q to be algebraic. We also give an upper bound for the order of the quotient of the Brauer group of D by the image of the Brauer group of Q.

Integral Points for Multi-norm Tori
We construct a finite subgroup of Brauer-Manin obstruction for detecting the existence of integral points on integral models of principle homogeneous spaces of multi-norm tori. Several explicit examples are provided.Comment: 25 pages.

Zero-cycles on varieties over p-adic fields and Brauer groups
In this paper, we study the Brauer-Manin pairing of smooth proper varieties over local fields, and determine the $p$-adic part of the kernel of one side.

An elementary proof of Hilbert's theorem on ternary quartics [PDF]
In 1888, Hilbert proved that every non-negative quartic form f=f(x,y,z) with real coefficients is a sum of three squares of quadratic forms. His proof was ahead of its time and used advanced methods from topology and algebraic geometry.
