Manin’s conjecture for a quartic del Pezzo surface with singularity
The Manin conjecture is established for a split singular del Pezzo surface of degree four, with singularity type .
The Manin conjecture is established for a split singular del Pezzo surface of degree four, with singularity type .
We prove Manin’s conjecture for a del Pezzo surface of degree six which has one singularity of type . Moreover, we achieve a meromorphic continuation and explicit expression of the associated height zeta function.
We generalize L. J. Mordell’s construction of cubic surfaces for which the Hasse principle fails.
