We consider some diophantine problems suggested by the analogy between multiplicative groups and powers of the modular curve in problems of "unlikely intersections." We prove a special case of the Zilber-Pink conjecture for curves.

In this article, we prove that the Zilber-Pink conjecture for abelian varieties over an arbitrary field of characteristic $0$ is implied by the same statement for abelian varieties over the algebraic numbers. More precisely, the conjecture…

The Poincar\'e torsor of a Shimura family of abelian varieties can be viewed both as a family of semi-abelian varieties and as a mixed Shimura variety. We show that the special subvarieties of the latter cannot all be described in terms of…

The Andr\'e-Pink-Zannier conjecture concerns the intersection of subvarieties and the generalized Hecke orbit of a given point in mixed Shimura varieties. It is part of the Zilber-Pink conjecture. In this paper we focus on the universal…

Let G be a semiabelian variety defined over a finite subfield of an algebraically closed field K of prime characteristic. We describe the intersection of a subvariety X of G with a finitely generated subgroup of G(K).

We consider a family, depending on a parameter, of multiplicative extensions of an elliptic curve with complex multiplications. They form a 3-dimensional variety $G$ which admits a dense set of special curves, known as Ribet curves, which…

In unpublished notes Pila proposed a Modular Zilber-Pink with Derivatives (MZPD) conjecture, which is a Zilber-Pink type statement for the modular $j$-function and its derivatives. In this article we define D-special varieties, then state…

Given subvarieties $X, Y$ of a complex algebraic variety $S$ of complementary dimension, must they intersect? When $S$ is projective space, this is a consequence of the classical B\'ezout theorem, and an analogue for simple abelian…

In this paper we survey the history of, and recent developments on, two major conjectures originating in Zilber's model-theoretic work on complex exponentiation -- Existential Closedness and Zilber-Pink. The main focus is on the modular…

Working in a variant of the intersection type assignment system of Coppo, Dezani-Ciancaglini and Venneri [1981], we prove several facts about sets of terms having a given intersection type. Our main result is that every strongly normalizing…

The universal Poincar\'e torsor, or more generally the universal semi-abelian scheme, can be viewed as a mixed Shimura variety. We give a classification of special subvarieties of the universal semi-abelian scheme of arbitrary toric rank.…

Inspired by recent work of Aslanyan and Daw, we introduce the notion of $\Sigma$-orbits in the general framework of distinguished categories. In the setting of connected Shimura varieties, this concept contains many instances of…

This paper has two objectives. First, we study lattices with skew-Hermitian forms over division algebras with positive involutions. For division algebras of Albert types I and II, we show that such a lattice contains an "orthogonal" basis…

The Torsion Anomalous Conjecture (TAC) states that a subvariety V of an abelian variety A has only finitely many maximal torsion anomalous subvarieties. In this work we prove, with an effective method, some cases of the TAC when the ambient…

We characterise the model-theoretic algebraic closure in Zilber's exponential field. A key step involves showing that certain algebraic varieties have finite intersections with certain finite-rank subgroups of the graph of exponentiation.…

Under some cardinal arithmetic assumptions, we prove that every stationary subset of lambda of a right cofinality has the weak diamond. This is a strong negation of uniformization. We then deal with a weaker version of the weak diamond-…

Let $R$ be commutative Noetherian ring and let $\fa$ be an ideal of $R$. For complexes $X$ and $Y$ of $R$--modules we investigate the invariant $\inf{\mathbf R}\Gamma_{\fa}({\mathbf R}\Hom_R(X,Y))$ in certain cases. It is shown that, for…
