Denis associated to each Drinfeld module M over a global function function field L a canonical height function, which plays a role analogous to that of the Neron-Tate height in the context of elliptic curves. We prove that there exist…
We propose a lower bound estimate in Dobrowolski's style of the canonical height on a certain family of Drinfeld modules of characteristic 0, including under some hypothesis on their degree and their base field, the complex multiplication…
Suppose we are given a Drinfeld Module $\phi$ over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ of rank $r$ and a prime ideal $\mathfrak{l}$ of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. In this paper, we prove that the reducibility of mod $\mathfrak{l}$ Galois representation…
Let K be a number field and let E/K be an elliptic curve. If E has complex multiplication, we show that there is a positive lower bound for the canonical height of non-torsion points on E defined over the maximal abelian extension K^ab of…
Let $q$ be an odd number and $q>5$, and $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of $q$ elements. We prove that at most finitely many singular moduli of rank 2 $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$-Drinfeld modules are algebraic units. In particular, we develop some…
In this paper, we give an explicit bound on the irreducibility of mod-$\mathfrak{l}$ Galois representation for Drinfeld modules of arbitrary rank without complex multiplication. This is a function field analogue of Masser-W\"ustholz bound…
In this paper, we formulate the Drinfeld module analogue of a question raised by Lang and studied by Katz on the existence of rational points on abelian varieties over number fields. Given a maximal ideal $\fl$ of $\F_q[T]$, the question…
We give asymptotics for the number of Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ of a given height, which satisfy prescribed sets of local conditions. This is done by relating our problem to a problem about counting points on…
We derive asymptotically optimal upper bounds on the number of L-rational torsion points on a given elliptic curve or Drinfeld module defined over a finitely generated field K, as a function of the degree [L:K]. Our main tool is the adelic…
We present novel algorithms to factor polynomials over a finite field $\F_q$ of odd characteristic using rank $2$ Drinfeld modules with complex multiplication. The main idea is to compute a lift of the Hasse invariant (modulo the polynomial…
We prove a lower bound on the canonical height associated to polynomials over number fields evaluated at points with infinite forward orbit. The lower bound depends only on the degree of the polynomial, the degree of the number field, and…
We present a novel randomized algorithm to factor polynomials over a finite field $\F_q$ of odd characteristic using rank $2$ Drinfeld modules with complex multiplication. The main idea is to compute a lift of the Hasse invariant (modulo…
The goal of this paper is to obtain lower bounds on the height of an algebraic number in a relative setting, extending previous work of Amoroso and Masser. Specifically, in our first theorem we obtain an effective bound for the height of an…
We define the canonical submodule of a Drinfeld module of rank greater than one over the affine line over a finite field. (This extends the definition of the level 1 canonical subgroup of Hattori for rank 2 with ordinary reduction.) We give…
We give explicit bounds for Zsigmondy sets of certain families of Drinfeld modules of rank 2. The primary strategy is to bound the local heights associated to Drinfeld modules and then relate canonical to classical heights.
In this paper, we generalize Dorman's work to estimate singular moduli for higher rank Drinfeld modules. In particular, we give a lower bound on the valuation of singular moduli for Drinfeld modules with complex multiplication by an…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field K, and consider the canonical height function attached to a symmetric ample line bundle L on A. We prove that there is a positive lower bound C (depending on A, K, and L) for the…
We give a lower bound for the local height of a non-torsion element of a Drinfeld module.
We establish an explicit lower bound for the N\'eron-Tate height on elliptic curves with complex multiplication, for nontorsion points defined over the maximal abelian extension of a number field. Building on a strategy developed by…
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…
