Serre's dimension growth conjecture

Let XPQM1X\subseteq\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{Q}}^{M-1} be an irreducible projective variety of degree at least two defined over Q\mathbb{Q}. Let NX(B)N_X(B) be the number of rational points on XX of naive height at most BB. Serre's conjecture. There is a constant c>0c>0 such that

NX(B)XBdimX(logB)c.N_X(B)\ll_X B^{\dim X}(\log B)^c.

This is the original projective-variety formulation of dimension growth. The source notes that Salberger proved a version with BϵB^\epsilon in place of (logB)c(\log B)^c, while sharper bounds are available under additional hypotheses.
