Kim's Selmer-dimension conjecture for hyperbolic curves
Let and let be a hyperbolic curve. For the étale unipotent fundamental group and its level- quotient , let be the Selmer variety and let be the corresponding de Rham quotient. Kim's Selmer-dimension conjecture. For some , possibly very large,
This dimension inequality is intended to force the image of the rational or integral points in the de Rham quotient into a proper Zariski-closed subset, yielding finiteness by a non-abelian analogue of Chabauty's method. The conjecture is presented as the key Diophantine finiteness hypothesis and remains open in the stated generality.
