Lower bounds on heights of odd degree points of hyperelliptic curves
Jef Laga, Jack A. Thorne
We develop a reduction theory for the representation of on pairs of symmetric matrices. We apply this theory to the pencils of quadrics arising from div…

Kummers, spinors, and heights
Jef Laga, Jack A. Thorne
Let be a polynomial of nonzero discriminant, and let denote the Jacobian of the odd hyperelliptic curve $C : y^2 = f(…

An LLL algorithm with symmetries
Beth Romano, Jack A. Thorne
We give a generalisation of the Lenstra-Lenstra-Lovász (LLL) lattice-reduction algorithm that is valid for an arbitrary (split, semisimple) reductive group . This can be regard…

100% of odd hyperelliptic Jacobians have no rational points of small height
Jef Laga, Jack A. Thorne
We study the universal family of odd hyperelliptic curves of genus over . We relate the heights of -points of Jacobians of curves in this family…
