An introduction to height theory
The notion of height was invented by André Weil to prove the famous Mordell's conjecture (if A is an abelian variety defined over a number field K, then A(K) is a finitely generated abelian group). In this class, we will study some properties of the logarithmic, absolute Weil height. We will also discuss about open problems related to this useful tool. At the end, we will construct an analogue of this height on elliptic curves.
