course: Counting, heights and algebraic subgroups - large height

speaker: David Masser (Universität Basel)

abstract: Northcott showed that there are at most finitely many algebraic points in a given affine space with height and degree bounded above. Schanuel gave the asymptotic counting function for large height over a fixed number field. In this talk we describe a generalization of the latter result and some of its applications: for example to count multiplicative algebraic subgroups, or to count points of large height and fixed degree on a line.
