Strong approximation conjecture for varieties associated to pairs of polynomials and field extensions

Let kk be a number field, let P1(t),,Pn(t)P_1(t),\cdots, P_n(t) be pairwise distinct irreducible polynomials in k[t]k[t]. Set ki=k[t]/(Pi(t))k_i=k[t]/(P_i(t)), let aia_i be the class of tt in kik_i, let Li/kiL_i/k_i be finite field extensions, and let bikib_i\in k_i^*. Let FiF_i be the singular locus of RLi/k(ALi1)RLi/k(Gm,Li)R_{L_i/k}(\mathbb A^1_{L_i})\setminus R_{L_i/k}(\mathbb G_{m,L_i}). Let WW be the closed subvariety of Ak2{(0,0)}×i=1n(RLi/k(ALi1)Fi)\mathbb A^2_k\setminus \{(0,0)\}\times \prod_{i=1}^n (R_{L_i/k}(\mathbb A^1_{L_i})\setminus F_i) with coordinates (λ,μ,z1,,zn)(\lambda,\mu,{\bf z}_1,\cdots,{\bf z}_n) defined by

bi(λaiμ)=NLi/ki(zi),1in,b_i(\lambda-a_i\mu)=N_{L_i/k_i}({\bf z}_i),\qquad 1\leq i\leq n,

where NLi/kiN_{L_i/k_i} is the norm form of Li/kiL_i/k_i. Such a WW is a variety associated to the pairs (P1(t),L1),,(Pn(t),Ln)(P_1(t),L_1),\cdots,(P_n(t),L_n). Strong approximation conjecture. The variety WW satisfies strong approximation for integral points off any place v0v_0 of kk. This conjecture concerns the fibration method and would imply Harpaz and Wittenberg's Conjecture 9.1; the assertion remains unresolved in the supplied source.
