Using original ideas from J.-B. Bost and S. David, we provide an explicit comparison between the Theta height and the stable Faltings height of a principally polarized Abelian variety. We also give as an application an explicit upper bound on the number of -rational points of a curve of genus under a conjecture of S. Lang and J. Silverman. We complete the study with a comparison between differential lattice structures.
Let be a number field, and let be an abelian variety. Let denote the product of the Tamagawa numbers of , and let denote the finite torsion subgroup of . The quotient is a factor appearing in the leading term of the -function of in the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer. We investigate in this article possible cancellations in this ratio. Precise results are obtained for elliptic curves over or quadratic extensions , and for abelian surfaces . The smallest possible ratio...
On donne la liste (à un élément près) des nombres premiers qui sont l’ordre d’un point de torsion d’une courbe elliptique sur un corps de nombres de degré trois.
Let be a Henselian discrete valuation ring with field of fractions . If is a smooth variety over and a torus over , then we consider -torsors under . If is a model of then, using a result of Brahm, we show that -torsors under extend to -torsors under a Néron model of if is split by a tamely ramified extension of . It follows that the evaluation map associated to such a torsor factors through reduction to the special fibre. In this way we can use the geometry of the special...
We provide an asymptotic estimate for the number of rational points of bounded height on a non-singular conic over ℚ. The estimate is uniform in the coefficients of the underlying quadratic form.
