Pseudo-split fibers and arithmetic surjectivity

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let f:XoY be a dominant morphism of smooth, proper and geometrically integral varieties over a number field k, with geometrically integral generic fibre. We give a necessary and sufficient geometric criterion for the induced map X(kv)oY(kv) to be surjective for almost all places v of k. This generalizes a result of Denef which had previously been conjectured by Colliot-Th'el`ene, and can be seen as an optimal geometric version of the celebrated Ax-Kochen theorem.
