Large Galois orbits conjecture for hybrid orbits

Let SS be a Shimura variety, let FF be a field of finite type over the reflex field of SS, and let s=[x,1]S(F)s=[x,1]\in S(F). Let Σg(x)\Sigma^g(x) denote the geometric hybrid orbit of xx, and let HfH_f be the natural height function. Large Galois orbits conjecture. As xx' varies in Σg(x)\Sigma^g(x),

[F([x,1]):F]Hf(x).[F([x',1]):F]\approx H_f(x').

The conjecture supplies the lower bounds on Galois-orbit sizes needed for the Pila–Zannier strategy. The paper proves it when SS is of abelian type, while the general case remains open.
