A uniform estimate for the density of rational points on quadrics

Number Theory 2020-03-31 v1

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the density of rational points of bounded height lying on a variety defined by an integral quadratic form Q. In the case of four variables, we give an estimate that does not depend on the coefficients of Q. For more variables, a similar estimate still holds with the restriction that we only count points which do not lie on rational lines.
