Given a variety X over a number field, one is interested in the collection X(F) of rational points on X. Weil defined a variety X' (the restriction of scalars of X) defined over the rational numbers whose set of rational points is naturally equal to X(F). In this talk, I will compare the number of rational points of bounded height on X with those on X'.
