The Equidistribution Conjecture is proved for general semiabelian varieties over number fields. Previously, this conjecture was only known in the special case of almost split semiabelian varieties through work of Chambert-Loir. The general…

In this paper, we formulate the geometric Bogomolov conjecture for abelian varieties, and give some partial answers to it. In fact, we insist in a main theorem that under some degeneracy condition, a closed subvariety of an abelian variety…

The Bogomolov conjecture claims that a closed subvariety containing a dense subset of small points is a special kind of subvarieties. In the arithmetic setting over number fields, the Bogomolov conjecture for abelian varieties has already…

The Bogomolov conjecture for a curve claims finiteness of algebraic points on the curve which are small with respect to the canonical height. Ullmo has established this conjecture over number fields, and Moriwaki generalized it to the…

Recently, R\'emond stated a very general conjecture on lower bounds of a normalized height on either an abelian variety or a power of the multiplicative group. In this note, we extend a particular case of this conjecture to split…

We establish the geometric Bogomolov conjecture for semiabelian varieties over function fields. We show a closed subvariety contains Zariski dense sets of small points, if and only if, after modulo its stabilizer, it is a torsion translate…

The proof by Ullmo and Zhang of Bogomolov's conjecture about points of small height in abelian varieties made a crucial use of an equidistribution property for ``small points'' in the associated complex abelian variety. We study the…

In this paper, the equidistribution theorem of Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang about sequences of small points in an abelian variety is extended to the case of sequences of higher dimensional subvarieties. A quantitative version of this result is also…

We deduce an analogue of the Bogomolov conjecture for non-degenerate subvarieties in fibered products of families of elliptic curves from the author's recent theorem on equidistribution in families of abelian varieties. This generalizes…

We prove an equidistribution result for small subvarieties of an abelian variety which generalizes the Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang theorem on equidistribution of small points.

We prove the Bogomolov conjecture for an abelian variety A over a function field which is totally degenerate at a place v. We adapt Zhang's proof of the number field case replacing the complex analytic tools by tropical analytic geometry. A…

We prove that the geometric Bogomolov conjecture for any abelian varieties is reduced to that for nowhere degenerate abelian varieties with trivial trace. In particular, the geometric Bogomolov conjecture holds for abelian varieties whose…

Canonical heights and Arakelov geometry on semi-abelian varieties. In this paper, we propose a construction of the canonical heights on an extension of an abelian variety by the multiplicative group, in the framework of Arakelov geometry.…

Hrushovski observed that the new gap principle of Gao-Ge-K\"uhne is essentially equivalent to the Bogomolov conjecture over arbitrary globally valued fields of characteristic $0$. Building on this observation, we prove a new gap principle…

On an abelian scheme over a smooth curve over $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ a symmetric relatively ample line bundle defines a fiberwise N\'eon-Tate height. If the base curve is inside a projective space, we also have a height on its…

We formulate a conjecture for semiabelian varieties A over number fields that includes both the Mordell-Lang conjecture (now proven) and the Bogomolov conjecture. We prove the "Mordellic" (finitely generated) part of the conjecture when A…

In "Mordell-Lang plus Bogomolov", we formulated a conjecture combining the Mordell-Lang conjecture (now proven) and the Bogomolov conjecture, and proved the Mordellic part when A is almost split (i.e., isogenous to the product of an abelian…

We prove a sharp lower bound for the essential minimum of a non-translate variety in certain abelian varieties. This uses and generalises a result of Galateau. Our bound is a new step in direction of an abelian analogue by David and…

We prove that the geometric Bogomolov conjecture holds for nowhere degenerate abelian varieties of dimension $5$ with trivial trace. By this result together with our previous work, we see that the conjecture holds for an abelian variety…

This is an introduction to the topics of the title, from the 2017 Grenoble Summer school on Arakelov geometry and arithmetic applications. We review Arithmetic intersection numbers, explain the definition of the height of a variety and its…
