Manin's conjecture for a cubic surface with 2A2+A1 singularity type
Abstract
We establish Manin's conjecture for a cubic surface split over Q and whose singularity type is 2A2+A1. For this, we make use of a deep result about the equidistribution of the values of a certain restricted divisor function in three variables in arithmetic progressions. This result is due to Friedlander and Iwaniec (and was later improved by Heath-Brown) and draws on the work of Deligne.
