Explicit height estimates for CM curves of genus 2

In this paper we make explicit the constants of Habegger and Pazuki's work from 2017 on bounding the discriminant of cyclic Galois CM fields corresponding to genus 2 curves with CM by them and potentially good reduction outside a predefined set of primes. We also simplify some of the arguments.

Transcendence measure of $e^{1/n}$

For a given transcendental number $ξ$ and for any polynomial $P(X)=: λ_0+\cdots+λ_k X^k \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, we know that $ P(ξ) \neq 0.$ Let $k \geq 1$ and $ω(k, H)$ be the infimum of the numbers $r > 0$ satisfying the estimate $$ \left|λ_0+λ_1 ξ+λ_2 ξ^{2}+ \ldots +λ_kξ^{k}\right| > \frac{1}{H^r}, $$ for all $(λ_0, \ldots ,λ_k)^T \in \mathbb{Z}^{k+1}\setminus\{\overline{0}\}$ with $\max_{1\le i\le k} \{|λ_i|\} \le H$. Any function greater than or equal to $ω(k, H)$ is a {\it transcendence measure of $ξ$}. In this article, we find out a transcendence measure of $ e^{1/n}$ which improves a result proved by Mahler(\cite{Mahler}) in 1975.

Explicit Small Heights in Infinite Non-Abelian Extensions

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the rationals. We will consider the infinite extension $\mathbb{Q}(E_{\text{tor}})$ of the rationals where we adjoin all coordinates of torsion points of $E$. In this paper we will prove an explicit lower bound for the height of non-zero elements in $\mathbb{Q}(E_{\text{tor}})$ that are not a root of unity, only depending on the conductor of the elliptic curve. As a side result we will give an explicit bound for a small supersingular prime for an elliptic curve.

Small Heights in Large Non-Abelian Extensions

Let E be an elliptic curve over the rationals. Let L be an infinite Galois extension of the rationals with uniformly bounded local degrees at almost all primes. We will consider the infinite extension L(E_tor) of the rationals where we adjoin all coordinates of torsion points of E. In this paper we will prove an effective lower bound for the height of non-zero elements in L(E_tor) that are not a root of unity.
