Description for Brauer Groups, Tamagawa Measures, and Rational Points on Algebraic Varieties
The central theme of this book is the study of rational points on algebraic varieties of Fano and intermediate type - both in terms of when such points exist and, if they do, their quantitative density. The book presents the state of the art in computational arithmetic geometry for higher-dimensional algebraic varieties. Series: Mathematical Surveys and Monographs. Num Pages: 267 pages. BIC Classification: PBF; PBH; PBMW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 254 x 178. .
The central theme of this book is the study of rational points on algebraic varieties of Fano and intermediate type - both in terms of when such points exist and, if they do, their quantitative density. The book consists of three parts. In the first part, the author discusses the concept of a height and formulates Manin's conjecture on the asymptotics of rational points on Fano varieties.
The second part introduces the various versions of the Brauer group. The author explains why a Brauer class may serve as an obstruction to weak approximation or even to the Hasse principle. ... Read more
