Abstract
In studying rational points on elliptic K3 surfaces of the form $$\begin{equation*} f(t)y^2=g(x), \end{equation*}$$ where f, g are cubic or quartic polynomials (without repeated roots), we introduce a condition on the quadratic twists of two elliptic curves having simultaneously positive Mordell–Weil rank, and we relate it to the Hilbert property. Applying to surfaces of Cassels–Schinzel type, we prove unconditionally that rational points are dense both in Zariski topology and in real topology.
