Abstract
Under fairly natural assumptions, Huang counted the number of rational points lying close to an arc of a planar curve. He obtained upper and lower bounds of the correct order of magnitude, and conjectured an asymptotic formula. In this note, we establish the conjectured asymptotic formula.
