Abstract
Let be a number field, and let be a subspace of , . Let be subspaces of of dimension less than dimension of . We prove the existence of a point of small height in , providing an explicit upper bound on the height of such a point in terms of heights of and . Our main tool is a counting estimate we prove for the number of points of a subspace of inside of an adelic cube. As corollaries to our main result we derive an explicit bound on the height of a non-vanishing point for a decomposable form and an effective subspace extension lemma.
