Heights on Curves and Limits of Hodge Structures

Explore the intricate connection between Néron-Tate heights on smooth curves over number fields and biextension heights of limit mixed Hodge structures in this advanced mathematics lecture. Delve into the innovative approach that suggests a new method for computing Beilinson-Bloch heights in higher dimensions. Gain insights from the collaborative work of the speaker with Spencer Bloch and Emre Sertöz as they present their findings on smoothing deformations of singular quotient curves. Enhance your understanding of complex mathematical concepts in this hour-long presentation from the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics.
