We prove, for the canonical height defined by Silverman [15] on monomial maps, the existence of effective lower bounds for heights of points with Zariski dense orbit, for cases with endomorphisms induced by matrices with real Jordan form.

Let $f: \mathbb{A}^2 \to \mathbb{A}^2$ be a polynomial automorphism of dynamical degree $\delta \geq 2$ over a number field $K$. (This is equivalent to say that $f$ is a polynomial automorphism that is not triangularizable.) Then we…

We construct height functions defined stochastically on projective varieties equipped with endomorphisms, and we prove that these functions satisfy analogs of the usual properties of canonical heights. Moreover, we give a dynamical…

We prove the existence of a gap around zero for canonical height functions associated to endomorphisms of projective spaces defined over complex function fields. We also prove that if the rational points of height zero are Zariski dense,…

We define an "ample canonical height" for an endomorphism on a projective variety, which is essentially a generalization of the canonical heights for polarized endomorphisms introduced by Call--Silverman. We formulate a dynamical analogue…

Let f: A^N \to A^N be a regular polynomial automorphism defined over a number field K. For each place v of K, we construct the v-adic Green functions G_{f,v} and G_{f^{-1},v} (i.e., the v-adic canonical height functions) for f and f^{-1}.…

Let K be a function field, let f be a rational function of degree d at least 2 defined over K, and suppose that f is not isotrivial. In this paper, we show that a point P in P^1(Kbar) has f-canonical height zero if and only if P is…

We show the existence of canonical heights of subvarieties for bounded sequences of morphisms and give some applications.

In this paper, we propose a new height function for a variety defined over a finitely generated field over Q. For this height function, we will prove Northcott's theorem and Bogomolov's conjecture, so that we can recover the original…

We define a new canonical height pairing on the rational points of elliptic curves over global function fields which takes values in the multiplicative group of a completion of the function field. This height serves as an analogue of both…

Let K be a function field in one variable over an arbitrary field F. Given a rational function f(z) in K(z) of degree at least two, the associated canonical height on the projective line was defined by Call and Silverman. The preperiodic…

The canonical height associated to a polarized endomporhism of a projective variety, constructed by Call and Silverman and generalizing the N\'eron-Tate height on a polarized Abelian variety, plays an important role in the arithmetic theory…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be the function field of a curve over an algebraically closed field with $\operatorname{char}(\mathbb{F})\ne2,3$, and let $E/\mathbb{F}$ be an elliptic curve. Then for all finite extensions $\mathbb{K}/\mathbb{F}$ and all…

We consider the arithmetic of Henon maps f(x, y)=(ay, x+f(y)) defined over number fields and function fields, usually with the restriction that a=1. We prove a result on the variation of Kawaguchi's canonical height in families of Henon…

This paper is the sequel of our paper "Arithmetic height functions over finitely generated fields" (cf. math.NT/9809016). In this paper, we define the canonical height of subvarieties of an abelian variety over a finitely generated field…

We introduce an algorithm that can be used to compute the canonical height of a point on an elliptic curve over the rationals in quasi-linear time. As in most previous algorithms, we decompose the difference between the canonical and the…

Let $f: \mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a map of degree $>1$ defined over a function field $k = K(X)$, where $K$ is a number field and $X$ is a projective curve over $K$. For each point $a \in \mathbb{P}^1(k)$ satisfying a dynamical…

We establish the finiteness of periodic points, that we called Geometric Dynamical Northcott Property, for regular polynomials automorphisms of the affine plane over a function field $\mathbf{K}$ of characteristic zero, improving results of…

We study canonical heights for plane polynomial mappings of small topological degree. In particular, we prove that for points of canonical height zero, the arithmetic degree is bounded by the topological degree and hence strictly smaller…

It is well known that for transitive unimodal logics, finite height is both necessary and sufficient for local tabularity. It is also well known that for intermediate logics, finite height is sufficient (but not necessary) for local…
