The Mordell-lang Conjecture for Function Fields
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a proof of the geometric Mordell-Lang conjecture, in any characteristic. Our method involves a model-theoretic analysis of the kernel of Manin’s homomorphism and of a certain analog in characteristic p.

We prove versions of the Mordell-Lang conjecture for semiabelian varieties defined over fields of positive characteristic.
متن کاملAbelian Varieties and the Mordell–Lang Conjecture
This is an introductory exposition to background material useful to appreciate various formulations of the Mordell–Lang conjecture (now established by recent spectacular work due to Vojta, Faltings, Hrushovski, Buium, Voloch, and others). It gives an exposition of some of the elementary and standard constructions of algebro-geometric models (rather than model-theoretic ones) with applications (...
متن کاملModel Theory and Diophantine Geometry Lectures 3 , 4 and 5
These notes continue the notes of Anand Pillay on model theory and diophantine geometry. In my lectures I describe a model theoretic approach to some analogues of the Mordell-Lang conjecture for Drinfeld modules. Many questions remain open and algebraic proofs along the lines of the proof of the Manin-Mumford conjecture described by Pillay may be possible. We discuss these questions and potenti...
متن کاملDivision Points on Subvarieties of Isotrivial Semiabelian Varieties
The positive characteristic function-field Mordell-Lang conjecture for finite rank subgroups is resolved for curves as well as for subvarieties of semiabelian varieties defined over finite fields. In the latter case, the structure of the division points on such subvarieties is determined.
