Torsors for finite group schemes of bounded height

Ratko Darda, Takehiko Yasuda

Abstract

Let $F$ be a global field. Let $G$ be a non trivial finite étale tame $F$-group scheme. We define height functions on the set of $G$-torsors over $F,$ which generalize the usual heights such as discriminant. As an analogue of the Malle conjecture for group schemes, we formulate a conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of the number of $G$-torsors over $F$ of bounded height. This is a special case of our more general Stacky Batyrev-Manin conjecture from arXiv:2207.03645. The conjectured asymptotic is proven for the case $G$ is commutative. When $F$ is a number field, the leading constant is expressed as a product of certain arithmetic invariants of $G$ and a volume of a space attached to $G$. Moreover, an equidistribution property of $G$-torsors in the space is established.

Torsors for finite group schemes of bounded height

Abstract

Let be a global field. Let be a non trivial finite étale tame -group scheme. We define height functions on the set of -torsors over which generalize the usual heights such as discriminant. As an analogue of the Malle conjecture for group schemes, we formulate a conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of the number of -torsors over of bounded height. This is a special case of our more general Stacky Batyrev-Manin conjecture from arXiv:2207.03645. The conjectured asymptotic is proven for the case is commutative. When is a number field, the leading constant is expressed as a product of certain arithmetic invariants of and a volume of a space attached to . Moreover, an equidistribution property of -torsors in the space is established.
