Small totally p-adic algebraic numbers

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The purpose of this note is to give a short and elementary proof of the fact, that the absolute logarithmic Weil-height is bounded from below by a positive constant for all totally p-adic numbers which are neither zero nor a root of unity. The proof is based on an idea of C. Petsche and gives the best known lower bounds in this setting. These bounds differ from the truth by a term of less than log(3)/p.
