Chudnovsky–Chudnovsky conjecture on globally nilpotent indigenous bundles

About 19 years old · traced to

Let C‾\overline{C} be a smooth projective curve defined over a number field. Let (E,∇)({\mathcal E}, \nabla) be an indigenous bundle on C‾\overline{C}, and let Γ⊂PSL⁡2(R)\Gamma\subset \operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R}) be the monodromy group of E{\mathcal E}. Suppose that E{\mathcal E} is globally nilpotent. Chudnovsky–Chudnovsky conjecture. Then Γ\Gamma is either arithmetic or commensurable to a triangle group. The paper presents Teichmüller-curve examples whose associated bundles are globally nilpotent while their monodromy groups are neither arithmetic nor commensurable to triangle groups, explicitly producing counterexamples to this conjecture.
