Failure of the Hasse principle for Atkin-Lehner quotients of Shimura curves over

الأصل · EN

We show how to construct counter-examples to the Hasse principle over the field of rational numbers on Atkin-Lehner quotients of Shimura curves and on twisted forms of Shimura curves by Atkin-Lehner involutions. A particular example is the quotient of the Shimura curve X attached to the indefinite rational quaternion algebra of discriminant 23*107 by the Atkin-Lehner involution w107. The quadratic twist of X by Q(sqrt-23) with respect to this involution is also a counter-example to the Hasse principle over Q.
