Given an extension of number fields $E \subset F$ and a projective variety $X$ over $F$, we compare the problem of counting the number of rational points of bounded height on $X$ with that of its Weil restriction over $E$. In particular, we…

We present a method to obtain upper bounds on covering numbers. As applications of this method, we reprove and generalize results of Rogers on economically covering Euclidean $n$-space with translates of a convex body, or more generally,…

In this work we provide an upper bound for the multiplicity of a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay ring (under certain conditions), describe the rings attaining the equality for this bound, and outline a connection with Wilf's conjecture for…

Given an endomorphism f of projective space, we exhibit explicit bounds on the difference between the naive height of a divisor and its canonical height relative to f.

We introduce a new canonical height function for Jordan blocks of small eigenvalues for endomorphisms on smooth projective varieties over a number field. We prove that under an assumption on the eigenvalues of the endomorphism on the group…

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…

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

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…

The Rayleigh-B\'enard system with stress-free boundary conditions is shown to have a global attractor in each affine space where velocity has fixed spatial average. The physical problem is shown to be equivalent to one with periodic…

This paper is devoted to the estimation of the number of points of bounded height on fibrations in toric varieties over algebraic varieties, generalizing previous work by Strauch and the second author. Under reasonable hypotheses on…

We derive optimal estimates for the Bergman kernel and the Bergman metric for certain model domains in $\mathbb{C}^2$ near boundary points that are of infinite type. Being unbounded models, these domains obey certain geometric constraints…

We suggest an upper bound on binomial coefficients that holds over the entire parameter range and whose form repeats the form of the de Moivre-Laplace approximation of the symmetric binomial distribution. Using the bound, we estimate the…

Call and Silverman introduced the canonical height associated to a polarized dynamical system, that is, an endomorphism of a projective variety and an ample line bundle which pulls back to a tensor power of itself. They also presented an…

We give explicit formulas for the dimensions and the degrees of $A$-discriminant varieties introduced by Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky. Our formulas can be applied also to the case where the $A$-discriminant varieties are higher-codimensional…

We give a formula with explicit error term for the number of $K$-rational points $P$ satisfying $H(f(P)) \le X$ as $X \to \infty$, where $f$ is a nonconstant morphism between projective spaces defined over a number field $K$ and $H$ is the…

When an endomorphism $f:X\to X$ of a projective variety which is polarized by an ample line bundle $L$, i.e. such that $f^*L\simeq L^{\otimes d}$ with $d\geq2$, is defined over a number field, Call and Silverman defined a canonical height…

We investigate the numerical radius of weighted shifts on $\ell^{2}$ as a norm on $\ell^{\infty}$. Along the way, we prove that the largest value a Banach limit can attain on the sequence of absolute values of a bounded sequences is larger…

Let s be a special point on a Shimura variety, and x a pre-image of s in a fixed fundamental set of the associated Hermitian symmetric domain. We prove that the height of x is polynomially bounded with respect to the discriminant of the…

We consider the set of points in projective $n$-space that generate an extension of degree $e$ over given number field $k$, and deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of such points of absolute height at most $X$, as $X$ tends to…

The main emphasis will be on height upper bounds in the algebraic torus G^{n}_{m}. By height we will mean the absolute logarithmic Weil height. Section 3.2 contains a precise definition of this and other more general height functions. The…
