โฆ Synopsis
Extending Ullmo-Zhang's result on the Bogomolov conjecture, we give conditions that a closed subvariety of an abelian variety A defined over a number field is isomorphic to an abelian variety in terms of the value distribution of a Neron-Tate height function on the subvariety. As a corollary of the result, we prove the Bogomolov conjecture which claims that if an irreducible curve X in A is not isomorphic to an elliptic curve, then for the pseudodistance defined by the Neron-Tate height, the distribution of algebraic points on X is uniformly discrete. These results can be extended in the case where base fields are finitely generated over Q via Moriwaki's height theory.

## Abstract In a previous paper we showed that for every polarization on an abelian variety there is a dual polarization on the dual abelian variety. In this note we extend this notion of duality to families of polarized abelian varieties. As a main consequence we obtain an involution on the set of
