Abstract

We prove the Hasse principle for a smooth projective variety $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n-1}_\mathbb{Q}$ defined by a smooth system of two cubic polynomials in $n\geq 39$ variables. The main tool here is the development of a version of Kloosterman refinement for a smooth system of equations defined over $\mathbb{Q}$.
