Minimal isogeny between Drinfel'd modules (Q1306550): Difference between revisions

In this important paper the authors prove an analog of a basic result on isogenies between abelian varieties due to \textit{D. W. Masser} and \textit{G. Wüstholz} [Ann. Math. (2) 137, 459-472 (1993; Zbl 0804.14019)]. More precisely, the authors obtain a bound on the minimal isogeny between two Drinfeld modules (assuming of course that an isogeny exists in the first place). This bound, which is polynomial, depends only on the height of one of the modules and on the degree of a field over which both Drinfeld modules are defined.
