Diophantine Applications of Geometric Invariant Theory

A publication of the Société Mathématique de France
The author presents a proof of Roth's theorem (and some more recent variants) based on geometric invariant theory. A crucial role is played by a formula of Burnol-Zhang. The formula is studied in detail and is linked to Berkovich's \(p\)-adic analytic geometry and a conjecture of Bost on the tensor product of Hermitian vector bundles on a number field.
