We present a conjecture on the geometry of the Hodge locus of a (graded polarizable, admissible) variation of mixed Hodge structure over a complex smooth quasi-projective base, generalizing to this context the Zilber-Pink Conjecture for…

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…

We prove some cases of the Zilber-Pink conjecture on unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties. Firstly, we prove that the Zilber-Pink conjecture holds for intersections between a curve and the union of the Hecke translates of a fixed…

In this note, we prove the Zilber--Pink conjecture for subvarieties of mixed Shimura varieties, which are not defined over~$\overline{\mathbb Q}$ in a strong sense. We prove similar results for general variations of mixed Hodge structure 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…

In this paper we show how some known weak forms of the Zilber--Pink conjecture can be strengthened by combining them with the Mordell--Lang conjecture or its variants. We illustrate this idea by proving some theorems on atypical…

The aim of this note is to provide a concise introduction to so-called problems of unlikely intersections for (pure) Shimura varieties and to review the current state-of-the-art. In the process, we will touch upon more general settings and…

The authors previously formulated the hybrid conjecture, unifying Andr\'e-Pink-Zannier and Andr\'e-Oort conjectures, and proved it in Shimura varieties of abelian type. We study its analogue for mixed Shimura varieties, and consider the…

We prove a general likely intersections theorem, a counterpart to the Zilber-Pink conjectures, under the assumption that the Ax-Schanuel property and some mild additional conditions are known to hold for a given category of complex quotient…

We obtain results on the so-called Andre-Pink-Zannier conjecture which is a special case of a the Zilber-Pink conjecture on unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties. Our methods rely on an ergodic theorem of Richard-Zamojski and we are…

We prove the 'hybrid conjecture' which is a common generalisation of the Andre\'e-Oort conjecture and the Andr\'e-Pink-Zannier conjecture, in the case of Shimura varieties of abelian type.

We propose an axiomatic approach towards studying unlikely intersections by introducing the framework of distinguished categories. This includes commutative algebraic groups and mixed Shimura varieties. It allows us to define all basic…

We formulate characteristic $p$ analogues of the Mumford--Tate and the Andr\'e--Oort conjectures for ordinary mod $p$ Shimura varieties of Hodge type, and set up general frameworks for studying them. We prove the two conjectures for…

In this paper, we prove the generalised Andr\'e-Pink-Zannier conjecture (an important case of the Zilber-Pink conjecture) for all Shimura varieties of abelian type. Questions of this type were first asked by Y. Andr\'e in 1989. We actually…

We introduce a ``hybrid'' conjecture which is a common generalisation of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture and the Andr\'e-Pink-Zannier conjecture and we prove that it is a consequence of the Zilber-Pink conjecture. We also show that our hybrid…

We show that the strategy of point counting in o-minimal structures can be applied to various problems on unlikely intersections that go beyond the conjectures of Manin-Mumford and Andr\'e-Oort. We verify the so-called Zilber-Pink…

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.…

The purpose of this article is to explain the Pila-Zannier strategy for proving the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture. First, however, we will provide a brief introduction to the theory of Shimura varieties.

The Zilber-Pink conjecture predicts that an algebraic curve in $\mathcal{A}_2$ has only finitely many intersections with the special curves, unless it is contained in a proper special subvariety. Under a large Galois orbits hypothesis, we…

We show that the Lang-Trotter conjecture for pairs of elliptic curves implies new cases of the Zilber-Pink conjecture for curves in $\mathcal{A}_3$. Unlike previous results for curves in $\mathcal{A}_g$, our result does not rely on any…
