The full Denis–Mordell–Lang conjecture for Drinfeld modules
The full Denis–Mordell–Lang conjecture for Drinfeld modules
Let be a positive integer, and let be Drinfeld modules. An algebraic -submodule of is an irreducible algebraic subgroup invariant under the action of . A -module is finite rank if it contains a finitely generated -submodule such that is a torsion -module. Let be an affine variety defined over , and let be a finite rank -submodule of . The full Denis–Mordell–Lang conjecture. There exist algebraic -submodules of and points such that
Denis showed that, under certain natural Galois-theoretic assumptions, this full conjecture would follow from a weaker conjecture concerning finitely generated -modules. The case in which is the product of the torsion submodules of the was proved by Scanlon, and other instances are known, but the full statement remains unresolved.
