Abstract: For a curve C over a global field K it has been conjectured that the Brauer-Manin obstruction explains all failures of the Hasse principle. I will discuss results toward this conjecture in the case of constant curves over a global function field, i.e. where C and D are curves over a finite field and we consider C over the function field of D. This is joint work with Felipe Voloch.
