Abstract

We study an analogue of the Brauer-Manin obstruction to the local-global\nprinciple for embedding problems over global fields. We will prove the\nanalogues of several fundamental structural results. In particular we show that\nthe (algebraic) Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only one to weak approximation\nwhen the embedding problem has abelian kernel. As a part of our investigations\nwe also give a new, elegant description of the Tate duality pairing and prove a\nnew theorem on the cup product.\n
