Abstract

(Non-reduced fibers of an arithmetic scheme) For a reduced projective scheme over the ring of integers of a number field, the set of places over which the fibres of the scheme are not reduced is a finite set. We give an explicit upper bound for the product of the norms of places in this set. For this purpose, we introduce a generalization of the notion of height over the adelic ring. We reduce the general case of a scheme of pure dimension to the case of a hypersurface by using the theory of Chow varieties. The case of a hypersurface is then treated with the help of the resultant of the equation of the hypersurface with some partial derivatives of the equation.
