Bogomolov–Fu–Tschinkel conjecture on torsion-coordinate intersections

Let E1E_1 and E2E_2 be elliptic curves defined over C\mathbb{C}, given by Weierstrass equations

y2=f1(x),y2=f2(x),y^2=f_1(x),\qquad y^2=f_2(x),

where f1f_1 and f2f_2 do not have the same roots. Write Ei(C)torE_i(\mathbb{C})_{\rm tor} for the torsion points of Ei(C)E_i(\mathbb{C}). Bogomolov–Fu–Tschinkel conjecture. There is a constant cc such that

#(x(E1(C)tor)x(E2(C)tor))c.\#\bigl(x(E_1(\mathbb{C})_{\rm tor})\cap x(E_2(\mathbb{C})_{\rm tor})\bigr)\leq c.

The conjecture was fully proved following an initial breakthrough and the proof of the Uniform Manin–Mumford conjecture.
