Manin–Mumford conjecture for curves in their Jacobians

Let CC be an algebraic curve of genus g2g \geq 2, defined over a number field and embedded in its Jacobian JJ. Manin–Mumford conjecture. The set of torsion points of JJ which lie in CC is finite. This conjecture was proved in 1983 by Raynaud, who generalized it to arbitrary subvarieties of an abelian variety; the corresponding general theorem describes the Zariski closure of the torsion points as a finite union of translates of abelian subvarieties by torsion points.
