Abstract

A weighted projective stack is a stacky quotient P(a)=(An{0})/Gm\mathscr P(\mathbf a)=(\mathbf A^n-\{0\})/\mathbb G_m, where the action of Gm\mathbb G_m is with weights aZ>0n\mathbf a\in\mathbb Z^n_{>0}. Examples are: the compactified moduli stack of elliptic curves P(4,6)\mathscr P(4,6) and the classifying stack of μm\mu_m-torsors Bμm=P(m)B\mu_m=\mathscr P(m). We define heights on the weighted projective stacks. The heights generalize the naive height of an elliptic curve and the absolute discriminant of a torsor. We use the heights to count rational points. We find the asymptotic behaviour for the number of rational points of bounded heights.
