Poonen's Mordell–Lang–Bogomolov conjecture for semiabelian varieties
Let be a semiabelian variety over a number field , let be a finitely generated subgroup of , and let
be its division group. Let be a geometrically integral closed subvariety of . A sequence in is a sequence of small points if it is small for the dynamical height construction associated with multiplication on .
Poonen's Mordell–Lang–Bogomolov conjecture. For , suppose
where and is a sequence of small points in . If is not a translate of a sub-semiabelian variety of by an element of , then the points are not Zariski dense in .
The conjecture extends Mordell–Lang and Bogomolov from abelian to semiabelian varieties. The source presents it as unresolved, while noting that many special cases were already known; when , it gives a semiabelian generalization of Bogomolov.
