Abstract
Let be a 1-dimensional function field over an algebraically closed field of characteristic , and let be an abelian surface. Under mild assumptions, we prove a Lehmer-type lower bound for points in . More precisely, we prove that there are constants such that the normalized Bernoulli-part of the canonical height is bounded below by for all points whose height satisfies .
