Integral points on algebraic subvarieties of period domains: from number fields to finitely generated fields

Algebraic Geometry 2021-05-12 v4 Number Theory

Abstract

We show that for a variety which admits a quasi-finite period map, finiteness (resp.~non-Zariski-density) of SS-integral points implies finiteness (resp.~non-Zariski-density) of points over all Z\mathbb{Z}-finitely generated integral domains of characteristic zero. Our proofs rely on foundational results in Hodge theory due to Deligne, Griffiths, and Schmid, and Bakker-Brunebarbe-Tsimerman. We give straightforward applications to Shimura varieties, locally symmetric varieties, the moduli space of smooth hypersurfaces in projective space, and the moduli of smooth divisors in an abelian variety.
