Oesterlé, J. Construction de hauteurs archimédinnes et p-adiques suivant la méthode de Bloch. (French) Zbl 0531.14016 Théorie des nombres, Sémin. Delange-Pisot-Poitou, Paris 1980-81, Prog. Math. 22, 175-192 (1982). [For the entire collection see Zbl 0483.00002.] S. Bloch [Invent. Math. 58, 65-76 (1980; Zbl 0444.14015)] has introduced a height-function for an abelian variety A over a number field. This height-function is derived from the topological group of adelic points of the \({\mathbb{G}}_ m\)-extension of A associated with a divisor on A. The paper gives an elementary proof that Bloch’s height function coincides with the Néron-height (mod 0(1)). This proof is global and avoides the case of Néron-minimal model of A. The methods are then applied for the construction of p-adic heights. In the special case of an elliptic curve with complex multiplications one finds in this way the canonical height introduced by D.
