 Height inequality for rational maps and bounds for preperiodic points Bull. Korean Math. Soc. 2018 Vol. 55, No. 5, 1317-1332 https://doi.org/10.4134/BKMS.b160064Published online September 1, 2018 Chong Gyu Lee Soongsil University Abstract : In this paper, we introduce the $D$-ratio of a rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^n$ -$\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$, defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, whose indeterminacy locus is contained in a hyperplane $H$ on $\mathbb{P}^n$. The $D$-ratio $r(f;\overline{V})$ characterizes endomorphisms and provides a useful height inequality on $\mathbb{P}^n(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}) \setminus H$. We also provide a dynamical application: preperiodic points of dynamical systems of small $D$-ratio are of bounded height.
