<div align="left"><b><b><font color="#ff0000">Abstract:</font></b></b><font
color="#ff0000"><font color="#000000"> The size of an
explicit representation of a given rational point on an
algebraic curve is captured by its canonical height.
However, the canonical height is defined through the
dynamics on the Jacobian and is not particularly
accessible to computation. In 1984, Faltings related the
canonical height to the transcendental "self-intersection"
number of the point, which was recently used by van
Bommel-- Holmes--Müller (2020) to give a general algorithm
to compute heights. The corresponding notion for heights
in higher dimensions is inaccessible to computation. We
present a new method for computing heights that promises
to generalize well to higher dimensions. This is joint
work with Spencer Bloch and Robin de Jong.<i><br>
