Arithmetic sparsity in mixed Hodge settings
Abstract
Let be a smooth irreducible quasi-projective algebraic variety over a number field . Suppose is equipped with a -adic \'{e}tale local system compatible with an admissible graded-polarized variation of mixed Hodge structures on the complex analytification of . We prove that the -integral points in are covered by subpolynomially many geometrically irreducible -subvarieties, each lying in a fiber of the mixed period mapping arising from the variation of mixed Hodge structures. This is based on recent works by Brunebarbe-Maculan and Ellenberg-Lawrence-Venkatesh. As an application, we prove that there are subpolynomially many -integral Laurent polynomials with fixed reflexive Newton polyhedron and fixed non-zero principal -determinant. Our results answer a question asked by Ellenberg-Lawrence-Venkatesh.
