David-Hindry's multihomogeneous abelian Lehmer conjecture

From papers

Let A/KA/K be an abelian variety of dimension gg over a number field and let L\mathcal{L} be a symmetric ample line bundle on AA. For an nn-tuple (P1,,Pn)(P_1,\ldots,P_n), write D=[K(P1,,Pn):K]D=[K(P_1,\ldots,P_n):K].

David-Hindry's conjecture. For every integer nNn\in\mathbb{N}, there is a constant c(A/K,L,n)>0c(A/K,\mathcal{L},n)>0 such that, for every nn-tuple (P1,,Pn)(P_1,\ldots,P_n) of points of infinite order in A(K)A(\overline{K}) that are linearly independent over End(A)\operatorname{End}(A),

i=1nh^L(Pi)c(A/K,L,n)D1/g.\prod_{i=1}^n\widehat{h}_{\mathcal{L}}(P_i)\geq\frac{c(A/K,\mathcal{L},n)}{D^{1/g}}.

This is the multihomogeneous version of the abelian Lehmer problem, stated in the source as Conjecture 1.6 of David and Hindry. The source gives no resolution.
