Given a family of abelian varieties over a quasiprojective smooth curve $T^0$ over a global field and a point $P$ on the generic fiber, we show that the N\'eron-Tate canonical height $h_{X_t}(P_t)$ of $P_t$ along each fiber is exactly equal…
For $\theta$ a non-algebraic point on a quasi projective variety over a number field, I prove that $\theta$ has an approximation by a series of algebraic points of bounded height and degree which is essentially best possible. Applications…
We establish new upper bounds for the height of the S-integral points of an elliptic curve. This bound is explicitly given in terms of the set S of places of the number field K involved, but also in terms of the degree of K, as well as the…
We compare general inequalities between invariants of number fields and invariants of abelian varieties over number fields. On the number field side, we remark that there is only a finite number of non-CM number fields with bounded…
Let (X,L) be a polarized manifold. Assume that the automorphism group is finite. If the height discrepancy of (X,L) is O(d^2) then (X,L) admits a csck metric in the first chern class of L if and only if (X,L) is asymptotically stable.
It was shown by Faltings and Hriljac that the N\'eron-Tate height of a point on the Jacobian of a curve can be expressed as the self-intersection of a corresponding divisor on a regular model of the curve. We make this explicit and use it…
We show that, assuming Vojta's height conjecture, the height of a rational point on an algebraically hyperbolic variety can be bounded "uniformly" in families. This generalizes a result of Su-Ion Ih for curves of genus at least two to…
We investigate the analytic properties of the zeta-function associated with heights on equivariant compactifications of anisotropic tori over number fields. This allows to verify conjectures about the distribution of rational points of…
We study the birational geometry of irregular varieties and the singularities of Theta divisors of PPAV's in positive characteristic by applying recent generic vanishing results of Hacon and Patakfalvi. In particular, we prove that…
We investigate analytic properties of height zeta functions of toric varieties. Using the height zeta functions, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height with respect to an arbitrary line bundle…
We continue our study of integral points on moduli schemes by combining the method of Faltings (Arakelov, Parsin, Szpiro) with modularity results and Masser-W\"ustholz isogeny estimates. In this work we explicitly bound the height and the…
We study the height and width of a Galton--Watson tree with offspring distribution B satisfying E(B)=1, 0 < Var(B) < infinity, conditioned on having exactly n nodes. Under this conditioning, we derive sub-Gaussian tail bounds for both the…
Let (A,\lambda) be a principally polarized abelian variety defined over a global field k, and let \Sha(A) be its Shafarevich-Tate group. Let \Sha(A)_\nd denote the quotient of \Sha(A) by its maximal divisible subgroup. Cassels and Tate…
Let F be a number field and N an integral ideal in its ring of integers. Let f be a modular newform over F of level Gamma0(N) with rational Fourier coefficients. Under certain additional conditions, Guitart-Masdeu-Sengun constructed a…
We prove a completely explicit and effective upper bound for the N\'eron--Tate height of rational points of curves of genus at least $2$ over number fields, provided that they have enough automorphisms with respect to the Mordell--Weil rank…
For an abelian variety $A$ over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$, we prove that the algebraic rank of $A$ is at most a suitably defined analytic rank. Moreover, we prove that equality, i.e., the BSD rank conjecture,…
Let $k$ be a perfect field with $\mathrm{char}(k)\neq 2,3$, set $K=k(t)$, and let $\mathcal{W}_n^{\min}$ be the moduli stack of minimal elliptic curves over $K$ of Faltings height $n$, constructed via the height-moduli framework of…
There are many equivalent ways to describe the p-torsion of a principally polarized abelian variety in characteristic p. We briefly explain these methods and then illustrate them for abelian varieties A of arbitrary dimension g in several…
We give a new construction of $p$-adic heights on varieties over number fields using $p$-adic Arakelov theory. In analogy with Zhang's construction of real-valued heights in terms of adelic metrics, these heights are given in terms of…
We discuss variations of Hodge structures on abelian varieties that arise from intersecting translates of theta divisors with a special focus on the case of abelian varieties of dimension 4
