The genus-one Hasse principle violation conjecture
Let be a global field. A genus one curve over is a smooth projective curve of genus one, and an elliptic curve over is a genus one curve with a specified -rational point. Write for the Shafarevich–Tate group of . A curve violates the Hasse Principle if it has points over every completion of but no -rational point.
Genus-one Hasse principle violation conjecture. For every global field , there exists a genus one curve which violates the Hasse Principle. Equivalently, there exists an elliptic curve with .
The conjecture asks whether every global field admits a locally soluble but globally insoluble genus one curve. The supplied text gives no resolution, so its status remains open.
