In fact, if n=4 and char(Fq)>3 we prove that the number of rational points away from any rational line contained in X is bounded by O(|P|3/2+ε). From the result in 6 variables we deduce weak approximation for diagonal cubic hypersurfaces for n≥7 over Fq(t) when char(Fq)>3 and handle Waring's problem for cubes in 7 variables over Fq(t) when char(Fq)≠3. Our results answer a question of Davenport regarding the number of solutions of bounded height to x31+x32+x33=x34+x35+x36 with xi∈Fq[t]."}],"title":"On a question of Davenport and diagonal cubic forms over Fq(t)","has_accepted_license":"1","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"OA_type":"hybrid","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","corr_author":"1","publication_status":"epub_ahead","oa":1,"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"publication":"Mathematische Annalen","acknowledgement":"Open Access funding enabled and organized by Projekt DEAL.\r\nThe authors would like to thank Tim Browning for suggesting this project.
