Streszczenie
Let $X$ be a proper smooth variety having an affine open subset defined by the normic equation $N_{k(\sqrt {a},\sqrt {b})/k}({\textbf {x}})=Q(t_{1},\ldots ,t_{m})^{2}$ over a number field $k$. We prove that: (1) the failure of the local-global principle for zero-cycles is controlled by the Brauer group of $X;$ (2) the analogue for rational points is also valid assuming Schinzel's hypothesis.
