Zilber's finite-family conjecture for atypical intersections
Zilber's finite-family conjecture for atypical intersections
Let be a complex semi-abelian variety, and let be a closed irreducible subvariety of . For a closed equidimensional subvariety of , call an irreducible component of atypical if
Zilber's conjecture. There is a finite family of proper algebraic subgroups of such that, for every algebraic subgroup of , every atypical component of is contained in one of the members of .
The conjecture predicts uniform control of all atypical intersections by finitely many proper algebraic subgroups. It is motivated by Zilber's work on the analogue of Schanuel's conjecture in differential fields and is part of the theory of unlikely intersections.
