Rémond's Dobrowolski conjecture for finite-rank subgroups

Let KK be a number field, let GG be a semiabelian variety over KK, and let ΓG(K)\Gamma\subset G(\overline{K}) be a subgroup of finite rank. For a subvariety VGV\subset G, write μess(V)\mu_{\mathrm{ess}}(V) for its essential minimum and ωK(Γ)(V)\omega_{K(\Gamma)}(V) for its obstruction index relative to K(Γ)K(\Gamma). Call Γ\Gamma a Dobrowolski group if, for every ε>0\varepsilon>0, there exists cΓ(ε)>0c_\Gamma(\varepsilon)>0 such that

ωK(Γ)(V)1+εμess(V)cΓ(ε)\omega_{K(\Gamma)}(V)^{1+\varepsilon}\mu_{\mathrm{ess}}(V)\geq c_\Gamma(\varepsilon)

for every Γ\Gamma-transverse subvariety VGV\subset G. Rémond's Dobrowolski conjecture. Every subgroup of G(K)G(\overline{K}) of finite rank is a Dobrowolski group. This is stated as a weaker form of Rémond's Lehmer conjecture and is sufficient for the special case pursued in the paper; the supplied text does not state that it is solved.
