Abstract (Original language)
Résumé

Let $n ⩾ 5$ . In this Note, we explain how to determine the asymptotic behaviour of the size of the set of rational points $(a_{0} : \dots : a_{n}) \in P^{n} (Q)$ (where $a_{0}, \dots, a_{n} \in Z$ and $\gcd (a_{0}, \dots, a_{n}) = 1$ ) of bounded height $\max_{i = 0, \dots, n} | a_{i} | ⩽ B$ on the hyperplane $\sum_{i = 0}^{n} X_{i} = 0$ such that $a_{i}$ is squareful for each $i \in {0, \dots, n}$ as B goes to infinity. (An integer a is called squareful if the exponent of each prime divisor of a is at least two.) The main tool we will use, is the (classical) Hardy–Littlewood circle method.

Soit $n ⩾ 5$ . Dans cette Note, nous expliquerons comment on peut déterminer le comportement asymptotique du nombre de points rationnels $(a_{0} : \dots : a_{n}) \in P^{n} (Q)$ (avec $a_{0}, \dots, a_{n} \in Z$ et $pgcd (a_{0}, \dots, a_{n}) = 1$ ) de hauteur bornée $\max_{i = 0, \dots, n} | a_{i} | ⩽ B$ sur lʼhyperplan $\sum_{i = 0}^{n} X_{i} = 0$ tels que $a_{i}$ est un entier puissant pour chaque $i \in {0, \dots, n}$ , lorsque B tend vers lʼinfini. (Un entier a est appelé puissant si pour chaque nombre premier p divisant a, on a que $p^{2}$ aussi divise a.) La méthode principale quʼon utilise ici est la méthode du cercle de Hardy–Littlewood (classique).
