Ghioca–Tucker's dynamical Mordell–Lang conjecture for rational self-maps

About 7 years old · traced to

Let k{\mathbf{k}} be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 00, let XX be a variety defined over k{\mathbf{k}}, and let f:X⇢Xf:X\dashrightarrow X be a rational self-map. Say that (X,f)(X,f) has the DML-property if, for every subvariety VV of XX and every x∈X(k)x\in X({\mathbf{k}}) whose orbit is well-defined, the set

{n≥0∣fn(x)∈V}\{n\geq 0\mid f^n(x)\in V\}

is a finite union of arithmetic progressions. Dynamical Mordell–Lang conjecture. The pair (X,f)(X,f) satisfies the DML-property. This generalizes the dynamical Mordell–Lang conjecture to rational self-maps; it is known in a number of special settings but remains open in the stated generality.
