An upper bound for the height for regular affine automorphisms of An
Abstract
In 2006, Kawaguchi proved a lower bound for height of h(f(P)) when f is a regular affine automorphism of A2, and he conjectured that a similar estimate is also true for regular affine automorphisms of An for n>2. In this paper we prove Kawaguchi's conjecture. This implies that Kawaguchi's theory of canonical heights for regular affine automorphisms of projective space is true in all dimensions.
