Colliot-Thélène's local-to-global conjecture for zero-cycles
Colliot-Thélène's local-to-global conjecture for zero-cycles
For a number field , let be a smooth projective geometrically connected variety defined over . Let be the Chow group of zero-cycles, let be its adelic analogue, and write for the profinite completion of an abelian group . The diagonal map induces a complex
Colliot-Thélène's conjecture. The complex above is exact.
This conjecture asserts that the Brauer–Manin obstruction is the only obstruction to the local-to-global principle for zero-cycles. It is a central zero-cycle analogue of the corresponding principle for rational points; the supplied text does not state a resolution.
