A Note on Divisible Points of Curves

Abstract

Let CC be an irreducible algebraic curve defined over a number field and inside an algebraic torus of dimension at least 3. We partially answer a question posed by Levin on points on CC for which a non-trivial power lies again on CC. Our results have connections to Zilber's Conjecture on Intersections with Tori and yield to methods arising in transcendence theory and the theory of o-minimal structures.
