Sano Atti Accad. Naz. Lincei Rend. Lincei Mat. Appl., Vol. 34, No. 1, pp. 127–144, July 2023. We answer the question of Vidaux and Videla about the distribution of the Northcott numbers for the Weil height. We solve the same problem for the weighted Weil heights. These heights generalize both the absolute and relative Weil height. Our results also refine those of Pazuki, Technau, and Widmer. |
