Abstract

Let X be a homogeneous space, X = G/H, where G is a connected linear algebraic group over a number field k and H ⊂ G is a k-subgroup (not necessarily connected). Let S be a finite set of places of k. We compute a Brauer-Manin obstruction to weak approximation for X in S in terms of Galois cohomology.
