Rational points on complete intersections over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$

Abstract

A Kloosterman refinement for function fields $K=\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is developed and used to establish the quantitative arithmetic of the set of rational points on a smooth complete intersection of two quadrics $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n-1}_{K}$ , under the assumption that $q$ is odd and $n\geq 9$.
