On the algebraic Brauer classes on open degree four del Pezzo surfaces (1712.04745v2)
Published 13 Dec 2017 in math.AG and math.NT
Abstract: We study the algebraic Brauer classes on open del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. I.e., on the complements of geometrically irreducible hyperplane sections of del Pezzo surfaces of degree $4$. We show that the $2$-torsion part is generated by classes of two different types. Moreover, there are two types of $4$-torsion classes. For each type, we discuss methods for the evaluation of such a class at a rational point over a $p$-adic field.
