Heights of Gross—Schoen cycles and the uniform Mordell—Lang conjecture

Abstract:

 In this talk, we first consider a formula proved in the 2010s that relates the height pairing of the Gross—Schoen cycles on the product of a curve over a number field and the self-product of the relative dialyzing sheaves. Then, we describe a recent application given by Xinyi Yuan on the uniform Bogomolov conjecture and the uniform Mordell—Lang conjecture.
