Harari–Voloch conjecture for integral points on rational hyperbolic curves

Let FF be a global field, let XFX_F be a hyperbolic rational curve, meaning an open subset of PF1\mathbf P^1_F whose complement is a reduced separable divisor of degree at least 33, and let X\mathbf X be an integral model of XFX_F over oS\mathfrak{o}_S, where SS is a non-empty finite subset of ΩF\Omega_F containing F\infty_F. Define

BS(XF):=Ker[Br(XF)vSBr(XFv)/Br(Fv)].B_S(X_F):=\operatorname{Ker}\left[\operatorname{Br}(X_F)\rightarrow\prod_{v\in S}\operatorname{Br}(X_{F_v})/\operatorname{Br}(F_v)\right].

Harari–Voloch conjecture. The diagonal map

X(oS)(vSX(ov))BS(XF)\mathbf X(\mathfrak{o}_S)\longrightarrow\left(\prod_{v\notin S}\mathbf X(\mathfrak{o}_v)\right)^{B_S(X_F)}

is bijective. Harari and Voloch proposed this as an integral-point analogue of the Brauer–Manin principle for rational hyperbolic curves. The paper proves the conjecture over global function fields, while the general formulation is not asserted here to be resolved.
