Rational Points on Diagonal Cubic Surfaces

Abstract

We show under the assumption that the Tate-Shafarevich group of any elliptic curve over the rational numbers is finite that the cubic surface x13 + p1p2x23 + p2p3x33 + p3p1x43 = 0 has a rational point, where p1, p2 and p3 are rational primes congruent to 2 or 5 modulo 9.
