Failure of the Hasse principle for Enriques surfaces

Anthony Várilly-Alvarado, Bianca Viray

Published 2010-08-03Version 1

We construct an Enriques surface X over Q with empty \'etale-Brauer set (and hence no rational points) for which there is no algebraic Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle. In addition, if there is a transcendental obstruction on X, then we obtain a K3 surface that has a transcendental obstruction to the Hasse principle.
