Joint work with Bas Edixhoven. 

We present a generalization of Chabauty's method, that allows to compute the rational points on curves /Q\mathbf{Q} when the Mordell-Weil rank is strictly smaller than g+s1g+s-1, where gg is the genus of the curve and ss is the rank of the Néron-Severi group of the Jacobian.

The idea is to enlarge the Jacobian by talking a Gm\mathbf{G}_m-torsor over it and the algorithm ultimately consists in intersecting the integral points on the Gm\mathbf{G}_m-torsor with (an image of) the Zp\mathbf{Z}_p-points on the curve.

We can also view the method as a way of rephrasing the quadratic Chabauty method by Balakrishnan, Dogra, Muller, Tuitman and Vonk.
