Abstract

top
Given an elliptic curve E over a function field K = ℚ(T₁,...,Tₙ), we study the behavior of the canonical height h ̂ E ω of the specialized elliptic curve E ω with respect to the height of ω ∈ ℚⁿ. We prove that there exists a uniform nonzero lower bound for the average of the quotient ( h ̂ E ω ( P ω ) ) / h ( ω ) over all nontorsion P ∈ E(K).
