Let E/k be an elliptic curve over a number field. We obtain some quantitative refinements of results of Hindry-Silverman, giving an upper bound for the number of k-rational torsion points, and a lower bound for the canonical height of…

We define arithmetical and dynamical degrees for dynamical systems with several rational maps on projective varieties, study their properties and relations, and prove the existence of a canonical height function associated with divisorial…

Let $K$ be a number field, $\overline{\mathbb Q}$, or the field of rational functions on a smooth projective curve over a perfect field, and let $V$ be a subspace of $K^N$, $N \geq 2$. Let $Z_K$ be a union of varieties defined over $K$ such…

We prove an effective form of Wilkie's conjecture in the structure generated by restricted sub-Pfaffian functions: the number of rational points of height $H$ lying in the transcendental part of such a set grows no faster than some power of…

Let $X$ be an affine or a projective variety defined over a number field $K$ and $\varphi:{\bf C}\to X({\bf C})$ be a holomorphic map with Zariski dense image. We estimate the number of rational points of height bounded by $H$ in the image…

Let $k$ be a finite field extension of the function field $\bfF_p(T)$ and $\bar{k}$ its algebraic closure. We count points in projective space $\Bbb P ^{n-1}(\bar{k})$ with given height and of fixed degree $d$ over the field $k$. If…

We give a proof for a fact that for any Weil height $h_X$ with respect to an ample divisor on a projective variety $X$, any dynamical system $\mathcal{F}$ of rational self-maps on $X$, and any $\epsilon>0$, there is a positive constant…

We push further the classical proof of Weil upper bound for the number of rational points of an absolutely irreducible smooth projective curve $X$ over a finite field in term of euclidean relationships between the Neron Severi classes in…

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 prove a uniform version of the Dynamical Mordell-Lang Conjecture for \'etale maps; also, we obtain a gap result for the growth rate of heights of points in an orbit along an arbitrary endomorphism of a quasiprojective variety defined…

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…

Let $k$ be a number field and $V(k)$ an $n$-dimensional projective variety over $k$. We use the $K$-theory of a $C^*$-algebra $A_V$ associated to $V(k)$ to define a height of points of $V(k)$. The corresponding counting function is…

Let M be a field of finite type over {\bf Q} and X a variety defined over M. We study when the set {P \in X(K) \mid f^{\circ n} (P) = P for some n \geq 1} is finite for any finite extension fields K of M and for any dominant K-morphisms f :…

We prove an asymptotic formula as $x\to +\infty$ for the number of algebraic integers $\alpha$ belonging to a fixed CM number field and satisfying $\alpha\overline{\alpha}\leq x$. This problem is related to the height zeta function…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a global field, let d_f be the dynamical degree of f, and let h_X be a Weil height on X relative to an ample divisor. We prove that h_X(f^n(P)) << (d_f + e)^n…
