Abstract

In this short note, we survey some degree and height bound results for arithmetic Nullstellensatz from the literature. We also introduce the notion of height functions, ultraproducts and nonstandard extensions. As our main remark, we find height bounds for polynomial rings over integral domains via nonstandard methods.
