Abstract

In the present article, we define a notion of good height functions on quasi-projective varieties V defined over number fields and prove an equidistribution theorem of small points for such height functions. Those good height functions are defined as limits of height functions associated with semi-positive adelic metrization on big and nef ℚ -line bundles on projective models of V satisfying mild assumptions. Building on a recent work of the author and Vigny as well as on a classical estimate of Call and Silverman, and inspiring from recent works of Kühne and Yuan and Zhang, we deduce the equidistribution of generic sequence of preperiodic parameters for families of polarized endomorphisms with marked points.
