The Zilber–Pink conjecture for curves in powers of the modular curve
Let denote the modular curve, and let be an irreducible curve that is not contained in a proper special subvariety of . For a special subvariety , write for its codimension. Zilber–Pink conjecture. The set
is finite, where the union ranges over all special subvarieties of of codimension at least . This is the predicted finiteness of atypical intersections for curves in powers of the modular curve; the stated special case is open without additional assumptions on .
