The height bound conjecture for rational points on hyperelliptic curves
The height bound conjecture for rational points on hyperelliptic curves
For an integer , let be a polynomial of degree with nonzero discriminant, and let denote the maximum of the logarithmic heights of its coefficients. The height bound conjecture. There exist constants and such that, for every such polynomial and all satisfying
one has
The source presents this as a conjecture that, in degree at least , follows from Vojta's conjecture over ; it is used to obtain infinitely many rational specializations with prescribed index-two arboreal Galois images.
