Let $X$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ and $f$ a quasi-unipotent automorphism of $X$. When $\mathbf{k}$ is the field of complex numbers, Lin, Oguiso, and D.-Q. Zhang provide an explicit formula for the…
We consider an abelian variety defined over a number field. We give conditional bounds for the order of its Tate-Shafarevich group, as well as conditional bounds for the N\'eron-Tate height of generators of its Mordell-Weil group. The…
We design a probabilistic algorithm for computing endomorphism rings of ordinary elliptic curves defined over finite fields that we prove has a subexponential runtime in the size of the base field, assuming solely the generalized Riemann…
To study problems involving heights as, eg, Manin's conjecture on the number of points of bounded height on an algebraic variety defined over a number field, it is desirable to have a good normalization of these height functions. We show…
We use height arguments to prove two results about the dynamical Mordell-Lang problem. (i) For an endomorphism of a projective variety, the return set of a dense orbit into a curve is finite if any cohomological Lyapunov multiplier of any…
We consider heights of horizontal irreducible divisors on an arithmetic surface with respect to some hermitian line bundle. We obtain both lower and upper bounds for these heights. The results are different and sometimes stronger that those…
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
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 that for a dynamical system on an algebraic variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ generated by finitely many unramified endomorphisms, it is decidable whether a given point has a finite orbit. This is achieved by establishing an…
Recent theorems of Dubickas and Mossinghoff use auxiliary polynomials to give lower bounds on the Weil height of an algebraic number $\alpha$ under certain assumptions on $\alpha$. We prove a theorem which introduces an auxiliary polynomial…
This paper is devoted to studying certain topological properties of the maximal ideal space of the measure algebra on the circle group. In particular, we focus on Cech cohomologies of this space. Moreover, we show that the Gelfand space of…
The Kawaguchi--Silverman conjecture predicts that if $f\colon X \dashrightarrow X$ is a dominant rational-self map of a projective variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and $P$ is a $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-point of $X$ with Zariski-dense…
The aim of this paper is to study a conjecture predicting a lower bound on the canonical height on abelian varieties, formulated by S. Lang and generalized by J. H. Silverman. We give here an asymptotic result on the height of Heegner…
In an earlier work, the first author and Petsche solved an energy minimization problem for local fields and used the result to obtain lower bounds on the height of algebraic numbers all whose conjugates lie in various local fields, such as…
We study the relations between boundaries for algebras of holomorphic functions on Banach spaces and complex convexity of their balls. In addition, we show that the Shilov boundary for algebras of holomorphic functions on an order…
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.…
In this short note we show that the uniform abc-conjecture over number fields puts strong restrictions on the coordinates of rational points on elliptic curves. For the proof we use a variant of the uniform abc-conjecture over number fields…

We study the action of Bianchi groups on the hyperbolic $3$-space $\mathbb{H}^3$. Given the standard fundamental domain for this action and any point in $\mathbb{H}^3,$ we show that there exists an element in the group which sends the given…
In this note we shall prove that the complete K\"{a}hler-Einstein volume form on a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain with $C^{\infty}$-boundary is the normalized limit of a sequence of Bergman kernels.
