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…
We prove the Zilber-Pink conjecture for curves in $Y(1)^3$ that intersect a modular curve in the boundary. We also give an unconditional result for unlikely intersection points having few places of supersingular reduction where they are…
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…
We prove the Zilber--Pink conjecture for curves in $Y(1)^n$ whose Zariski closure in $(\mathbb{P}^1)^n$ passes through the point $(\infty, \ldots, \infty)$, going beyond the asymmetry condition of Habegger and Pila. Our proof is based on a…
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.…
We establish Large Galois orbits conjectures for points of unlikely intersections of curves in $Y(1)^n$, upon assumptions on the intersection of such curves with the boundary $X(1)^n\backslash Y(1)^n$, in the Zilber-Pink setting. As a…
We prove the Zilber-Pink conjecture to the intersection of an irreducible Hodge generic algebraic subvariety $ V \subset \mathcal{A}_g$ with special subvarieties of all simple PEL types other than $\mathbb{Z}$, under the assumption of the…
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…
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…
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…
Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety and $C$ a curve in $G$ that is not contained in a proper algebraic subgroup of $G$. In this situation, conjectures of Pink and Zilber imply that there are at most finitely many points contained in the…
Assuming a modular version of Schanuel's conjecture and the modular Zilber-Pink conjecture, we show that the existence of generic solutions of certain families of equations involving the modular $j$ function can be reduced to the problem of…
We prove function field versions of the Zilber-Pink conjectures for varieties supporting a variation of Hodge structures. A form of these results for Shimura varieties in the context of unlikely intersections is the following. Let $S$ be a…
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…
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 generalize the Cosmetic Surgery Conjecture to an $n$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold and prove it under the assumption of another well-known conjecture in number theory, so called the Zilber-Pink Conjecture. For $n=1$ and…
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…
Building on \cite{daworrpap,dawpap}, we prove two Zilber-Pink-type statements in $Y(1)^n$, assuming a weak form of the Lang-Trotter conjecture for pairs of elliptic curves.
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…
