The dynamical Bogomolov conjecture for polarized dynamical systems

Let (X,f,L)(X,f,\mathscr L) be a polarized dynamical system defined over a number field, and let YY be a subvariety of XX. Let the maximal preperiodic subvarieties contained in YY be the finitely many maximal elements, and let YY^* be their complement in YY. Dynamical Bogomolov conjecture. There are only finitely many maximal preperiodic subvarieties contained in YY, and

infxY(Q)h^L(x)>0.\inf_{x\in Y^*(\overline{\mathbb Q})}\hat h_{\mathscr L}(x)>0.

The assertion says that arbitrarily small canonical heights on a subvariety arise only from its preperiodic subvarieties. The source records proofs for toric, abelian, certain semi-abelian, quotient, and some separated-variable cases, but leaves the general polarized dynamical-system statement open.
