There are No Transcendental Brauer–Manin Obstructions on Abelian Varieties

Abstract

Abstract Suppose X is a torsor under an abelian variety A over a number field. We show that any adelic point of X that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of X is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of X. We also show that if there is a Brauer–Manin obstruction to the existence of rational points on X, then there is already an obstruction coming from the locally constant Brauer classes. These results had previously been established under the assumption that A has finite Tate–Shafarevich group. Our results are unconditional.
