Density conjecture for the typical Hodge locus

Let V\mathbb V be a polarizable Z\mathbb Z-variation of Hodge structure on an irreducible smooth quasi-projective variety SS, with period map Φ:SanΓ\D\Phi:S^{\mathrm{an}}\to\Gamma\backslash D. A special subvariety is typical when its period image meets the corresponding Hodge subvariety with the expected codimension; the typical Hodge locus HL(S,V)typ\operatorname{HL}(S,\mathbb V^{\otimes})_{\mathrm{typ}} is the union of the strict typical special subvarieties of SS for V\mathbb V. Density conjecture for the typical Hodge locus. If

HL(S,V)typ,\operatorname{HL}(S,\mathbb V^{\otimes})_{\mathrm{typ}}\ne\varnothing,

then it is analytically dense in SS. This predicts that the existence of one strict typical special subvariety forces typical Hodge loci to be analytically dense; the source provides no resolution status, so the conjecture is recorded as open.

  1. Density conjecture for the typical Hodge locus

    Let SS be a parameter space carrying a variation of Hodge structure V\mathbb{V}. Write HL(S,V)typ\textnormal{HL}(S,\mathbb{V}^{\otimes})_{\textnormal{typ}} for the typical Hodge locus.

    Density conjecture. If HL(S,V)typ\textnormal{HL}(S,\mathbb{V}^{\otimes})_{\textnormal{typ}} is non-empty, then it is dense in SS for the analytic topology.

    This conjecture asserts that the existence of one typical Hodge-locus point forces analytic density. It is presented as a conjectural statement in the source, with no resolution indicated.
