Abstract
We explore an analogue of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture for subvarieties of Drinfeld modular varieties. The conjecture states that a subvariety of a Drinfeld modular variety contains a Zariski-dense set of complex multiplication (CM) points if and only if is a "special" subvariety (i.e. is defined by requiring additional endomorphisms). We prove this conjecture in two cases. Firstly when contains a Zariski-dense set of CM points with a certain behaviour above a fixed prime (which is the case if these CM points lie in one Hecke orbit), and secondly when is a curve containing infinitely many CM points without any additional assumptions.
