Uniform Dynamical Mordell–Lang Conjecture

About 7 years old · traced to

Let XX and YY be quasi-projective varieties over a field KK of characteristic 00. Let f ⁣:X⟶Yf\colon X\longrightarrow Y be a morphism defined over KK, let Φ ⁣:X⟶X\Phi\colon X\longrightarrow X be an endomorphism defined over KK, and let x∈X(K)x\in X(K). Uniform Dynamical Mordell–Lang Conjecture. If

∣OΦ(x)∩f−1(y)∣<∞|\mathcal{O}_\Phi(x)\cap f^{-1}(y)|<\infty

for all y∈Y(K)y\in Y(K), then there is a constant NN such that

∣OΦ(x)∩f−1(y)∣<N|\mathcal{O}_\Phi(x)\cap f^{-1}(y)|<N

for all y∈Y(K)y\in Y(K). This strengthens the Dynamical Mordell–Lang prediction by requiring a uniform bound across the fibers of ff. It is known for étale endomorphisms by the theorem stated in the paper, and the conjecture remains open for arbitrary endomorphisms.
