Abstract: | LetK be a number field. Denote byV
3 a split Del Pezzo surface of degree six overK and by ω its canonical divisor. Denote byW
3 the open complement of the exceptional lines inV
3. LetN
W
s(−ω, X) be the number ofK-rational points onW
3 whose anticanonical heightH
−ω is bounded byX. Manin has conjectured that asymptoticallyN
W
3(−ω, X) tends tocX(logX)3, wherec is a constant depending only on the number field and on the normalization of the height. Our goal is to prove the following
theorem: For each number fieldK there exists a constantc
K such thatN
W
3(−ω, X)≤cKX(logX)3+2r
, wherer is the rank of the group of units ofO
K. The constantc
K is far from being optimal. However, ifK is a purely imaginary quadratic field, this proves an upper bound with a correct power of logX. The proof of Manin's conjecture for arbitrary number fields and a precise treatment of the constants would require a more
sophisticated setting, like the one used by Peyre] to prove Manin's conjecture and to compute the correct asymptotic constant
(in some normalization) in the caseK=ℚ. Up to now the best result for arbitraryK goes back, as far as we know, to Manin-Tschinkel], who gives an upper boundN
W
3(−ω,X)≤cXl+ε.
