By a *polarized arithmetical variety* I will mean a pair $(X,L)$ of a finite-type proper regular integral scheme $X$ flat and generically smooth over $\mathbb{Z}$, and an invertible sheaf $L 
\in \mathrm{PIC}(X)$ equipped with an $F_{\infty}$-invariant metric $\|
\cdot\|$ on the associated holomorphic line bundles $L_{\mathbb{C}}$, such that $\|\cdot\|$ is the uniform limit of positive $C^{\infty}$ metrics. 

There is then an Arakelov height functiont $h_L$ on the algebraic points $X(\bar{\mathbb{Q}})$, given by the arithmetic intersection number of the associated multisection with $\hat{c}_1(L)$, divided by $[\mathbb{Q}(x):\mathbb{Q}]$. Let me call such a polarization $(X,L)$ *harmonic* if the set
$$
\{ x \in X(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}) \quad | \quad h_L(x) = \inf_{X(\bar{\mathbb{Q}})} h_L \}
$$
is Zariski-dense.

One can show, as a consequence of the arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem, that the infimum then equals the arithmetic self-intersection (or arithmetic volume) $L^2/2$, and that moreover, the points of minimal height have their Galois orbits equidistributed in $c_1(L)$ (which, by definition, is a uniform limit of Chern forms of smooth metrics). Examples are abelian schemes over the full ring of integers of a number field, equipped with canonical symmetric polarizations (in which case the height $h_L$ is just the Neron-Tate height, and the points of minimum height are precisely the torsion points); and, on the other hand, projective space with the standard Weil height (or with the generalized canonical heights of Call-Silverman).

Two questions:

1. Has it been shown that semistable elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ (this case being the simplest), or more generally abelian varieties with non-integral moduli, are not harmonic in the above sense, with respect to any symmetric canonical polarization? Is the minimum of $h_L$ isolated in those cases?

2. Has it been shown that an arithmetical surface of genus $> 1$ is never harmonic in the above sense?
