On the section conjecture over fields of finite type

Number Theory 2023-03-02 v3 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Assume that the section conjecture holds over number fields. We prove then that it holds for a broad class of curves defined over finitely generated extensions of Q\mathbb{Q}. This class contains every projective, hyperelliptic curve, every hyperbolic, affine curve of genus 2\le 2, and a non-empty open subset of any curve. If we furthermore assume the weak Bombieri-Lang conjecture, we prove that the section conjecture holds for every hyperbolic curve over every finitely generated extension of Q\mathbb{Q}.
