We start with a brief survey on the Northcott property for subfields of the algebraic numbers $\Qbar$. Then we introduce a new criterion for its validity (refining the author's previous criterion), addressing a problem of Bombieri. We show…

Recently, Widmer introduced a new sufficient criterion for the Northcott property on the finiteness of elements of bounded height in infinite algebraic extensions of number fields. We provide a simplification of Widmer's criterion when the…

We prove that infinite Galois extensions of number fields with Galois group of finite exponent have the Northcott property. The main novelty of our approach lies in the application of a theorem of Segal on profinite groups.

Let $K$ be a totally real number field, $d$ a positive integer, and $Q$ a higher degree form over $K$. We prove that there are at most finitely many totally real extensions $L/K$ of degree $d$ such that $Q$ over $L$ is universal. Further,…

We construct infinite Galois extensions $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ that satisfy the Northcott property on elements of small height, and where this property can be deduced solely from the splitting behavior of prime numbers in $K$. We also give…

We give three examples of fields concerning the Northcott property on elements of small height: The first one has the Northcott property but its Galois closure does not satisfy the Bogomolov property. The second one has the Northcott…

We prove that if $K/\mathbb{Q}$ is a Galois extension of finite exponent and $K^{(d)}$ is the compositum of all extensions of $K$ of degree at most $d$, then $K^{(d)}$ has the Bogomolov property and the maximal abelian subextension of…

In this article, we study a certain Galois property of subextensions of $k(A_{\mathrm{tors}})$, the minimal field of definition of all torsion points of an abelian variety $A$ defined over a number field $k$. Concretely, we show that each…

Due to Narkiewicz a field $F$ has property (P) if for no polynomial $f\in F[x]$ of degree at least two there is an infinite $f$-invariant subset of $F$. We present a new example of an algebraic extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ satisfying (P). This…

By Northcott's Theorem there are only finitely many algebraic points in affine $n$-space of fixed degree over a given number field and of height at most $X$. For large $X$ the asymptotics of these cardinalities have been investigated by…

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ and $\gamma\in \mathbb{R}$, $h(\alpha)$ be the (logarithmic) Weil height, and $h_\gamma(\alpha)=(\mathrm{deg}\alpha)^\gamma h(\alpha)$ be the $\gamma$-weighted (logarithmic) Weil height of $\alpha$. Let…

We provide a characterization of infinite algebraic Galois extensions of the rationals with uniformly bounded local degrees, giving a detailed proof of all the results announced in a paper by Checcoli and Zannier and obtaining relevant…

We show that if a universal quadratic form exists over an infinite degree, totally real extension of the field of rationals $\mathbb{Q}$, then the set of totally positive integers in the extension does not have the Northcott property. In…

In 2001, Bombieri and Zannier studied the Northcott property (N) for infinite Galois extensions of the rationals. In particular they provided a local property of the extensions that imply property (N). Later, Checcoli and Fehm demonstrated…

We show that for each abelian number field $K$ of sufficiently large degree $d$ there exists an element $\alpha\in K$ with $K=\IQ(\alpha)$ and absolute Weil height $H(\alpha)\ll_d |\Delta_K|^{1/2d}$ , where $\Delta_K$ denotes the…

Let $X$ be a projective variety over a number field $K$ endowed with a height function associated to an ample line bundle on $X$. Given an algebraic extension $F$ of $K$ with a sufficiently big Northcott number, we can show that there are…

In this paper, for an elliptic curve $E$ defined over the algebraic numbers and for any subfield $F$ of algebraic numbers, we say that $E$ has the Northcott property over $F$ if there are at most finitely many $F$-rational points on $E$ of…

It is fundamental in number theory to calculate lower bounds for height functions. Grizzard studied lower bounds for the Weil height in a relative setting. Vidaux and Videla introduced the Northcott number for a set…

We find sharp upper and lower bounds for the degree of an algebraic number in terms of the $Q$-dimension of the space spanned by its conjugates. For all but seven nonnegative integers $n$ the largest degree of an algebraic number whose…

In this work we prove a new Northcott property for the Faltings height. Namely we show, assuming the Colmez Conjecture and the Artin Conjecture, that there are finitely many CM abelian varieties over the complex numbers of a fixed dimension…
