Abstract

By using symbolic generators of the Brauer group of diagonal cubic surfaces, we compute the degree-zero part of the Chow group of zero-cycles on some diagonal cubic surfaces over \(p\)-adic fields. We also find that the Chow group of zero-cycles on them are generated by the classes of rational points.
