Given any global field of characteristic , we construct a Châtelet surface over that fails to satisfy the Hasse principle. This failure is due to a Brauer-Manin obstruction. This construction extends a result of Poonen to characteristic , thereby showing that the étale-Brauer obstruction is insufficient to explain all failures of the Hasse principle over a global field of any characteristic.
We continue the examination of the stable reduction and fields of moduli of -Galois covers of the projective line over a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic , where has a cyclic-Sylow subgroup of order . Suppose further that the normalizer of acts on via an involution. Under mild assumptions, if is a three-point -Galois cover defined over , then the th higher ramification groups above for the upper numbering of the (Galois closure of the) extension vanish,...
This is a brief exposition on the uses of non-commutative fundamental groups in the study of Diophantine problems.
