We compute the successive minima of the projective toric variety $X_\cA$ associated to a finite set $ \cA \subset \Z^n$. As a consequence of this computation and of the results of S.-W. Zhang on the distribution of small points, we derive estimates for the height of the subvariety $X_\cA$ and of the $\cA$-resultant. These estimates allow us to obtain an arithmetic analogue of the Bezout-Kushnirenko's theorem concerning the number of solutions of a system of polynomial equations. As an application of this result, we improve the known estimates for the height of the polynomials in the sparse Nullstellensatz.
