Abstract

We prove finiteness results for Tate–Shafarevich groups in degree $2$ associated with $1$ -motives. We give a number-theoretic interpretation of these groups, relate them to Leopoldt’s conjecture, and present an example of a semiabelian variety with an infinite Tate–Shafarevich group in degree $2$ . We also establish an arithmetic duality theorem for $1$ -motives over number fields, which complements earlier results of Harari and Szamuely.
