Elliptic curves associated with simplest quartic fields

Sylvain Duquesne (2007)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We are studying the infinite family of elliptic curves associated with simplest cubic fields. If the rank of such curves is 1, we determine the whole structure of the Mordell-Weil group and find all integral points on the original model of the curve. Note however, that we are not able to find them on the Weierstrass model if the parameter is even. We have also obtained similar results for an infinite subfamily of curves of rank 2. To our knowledge, this is the first time that so much information...

Equidistribution and the heights of totally real and totally p-adic numbers

Paul Fili, Zachary Miner (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

C. J. Smyth was among the first to study the spectrum of the Weil height in the field of all totally real numbers, establishing both lower and upper bounds for the limit infimum of the height of all totally real integers, and determining isolated values of the height. Later, Bombieri and Zannier established similar results for totally p-adic numbers and, inspired by work of Ullmo and Zhang, termed this the Bogomolov property. In this paper, we use results on equidistribution of points of low height...

Equidistribution of Small Points, Rational Dynamics, and Potential Theory

Matthew H. Baker, Robert Rumely (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Given a rational function ϕ ( T ) on 1 of degree at least 2 with coefficients in a number field k , we show that for each place v of k , there is a unique probability measure μ ϕ , v on the Berkovich space Berk , v 1 / v such that if { z n } is a sequence of points in 1 ( k ¯ ) whose ϕ -canonical heights tend to zero, then the z n ’s and their Gal ( k ¯ / k ) -conjugates are equidistributed with respect to μ ϕ , v .The proof uses a polynomial lift F ( x , y ) = ( F 1 ( x , y ) , F 2 ( x , y ) ) of ϕ to construct a two-variable Arakelov-Green’s function g ϕ , v ( x , y ) for each v . The measure μ ϕ , v is obtained by taking the...
