Weak approximation and the Hilbert property for Campana points

Abstract

We study weak approximation and the Hilbert property for Campana points, both of importance in recent work on a Manin-type conjecture by Pieropan, Smeets, Tanimoto and Varilly-Alvarado. We show that weak weak approximation implies the Hilbert property for Campana points, and we exploit this to exhibit Campana orbifolds whose sets of Campana points are not thin.
