Comparing local-global obstructions on algebraic stacks

Abstract

Let k be a number field. For quotient stacks [X/G] with X a smooth quasi-projective geometrically integral k-variety and G a linear k-group, we extend several relations between local-global obstructions previously known for varieties, showing that étale-Brauer obstruction is the finest among various obstructions (such as iterated descent, finite descent, descent, Brauer-Manin).

Section 3 was rewritten with new lemmas fixing geometric-integrality plus typo/layout polish. 18 pages, git commit 81c812
