Local-global principles for hermitian spaces over semi-global fields
Let $K$ be a complete discrete valued field with residue field $k$ and $F$ the function field of a curve over $K$. Let $A \in {}_2Br(F)$ be a central simple algebra with an involution $σ$ of any kind and $F_0 =F^σ$. Let $h$ be an hermitian space over $(A, σ)$ and $G = SU(A, σ, h)$ if $σ$ is of first kind and $G = U(A, σ, h)$ if $σ$ is of second kind. Suppose that $\text{char}(k) \neq 2$ and ind$(A)\leq 4$. Then we prove that projective homogeneous spaces under $G$ over $F_0$ satisfy a local-global principle for rational points with respect to discrete valuations of $F$.
