    Full text link
    Let ΞΌβˆžβŠ†C\mu_{\infty}\subseteq\mathbb{C} be the collection of roots of unity and Cn:={(s1,⋯ ,sn)∈μ∞n:siβ‰ sjΒ forΒ anyΒ 1≀i<j≀n}\mathcal{C}_{n}:=\{(s_{1},\cdots,s_{n})\in\mu_{\infty}^{n}:s_{i}\neq s_{j}\text{ for any }1\leq i<j\leq n\}. Two elements (s1,⋯ ,sn)(s_{1},\cdots,s_{n}) and (t1,⋯ ,tn)(t_{1},\cdots,t_{n}) of Cn\mathcal{C}_{n} are said to be projectively equivalent if there exists γ∈PGL(2,C)\gamma\in\text{PGL}(2,\mathbb{C}) such that Ξ³(si)=ti\gamma(s_{i})=t_{i} for any 1≀i≀n1\leq i\leq n. In this article, we will give a complete classification for the projectively equivalent pairs. As a consequence, we will show that the maximal length for the nontrivial projectively equivalent pairs is 1414

    Full text link
    We study effective versions of unlikely intersections of images of torsion points of elliptic curves on the projective line.Comment: 19 page

    Full text link
    Fix dβ‰₯2d\geq2 and let ft(z)=zd+tf_{t}(z)=z^{d}+t be the family of polynomials parameterized by t∈Ct\in\mathbb{C}. In this article, we will show that there exists a constant C(d)C(d) such that for any a,b∈Ca,b\in\mathbb{C} with adβ‰ bda^{d}\neq b^{d}, the number of t∈Ct\in\mathbb{C} such that aa and bb are both preperiodic for ftf_{t} is at most C(d)C(d)

    Full text link
    For i=1,2i=1,2, let EiE_{i} be an elliptic curve defined over Qβ€Ύ\overline{\mathbb{Q}}, Ei[∞]E_{i}[\infty] the collection of all torsion points, and Ο€i:Eiβ†’P1(Qβ€Ύ)\pi_{i}:E_{i}\to\mathbb{P}^{1}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}) a double cover identifying Β±P∈Ei\pm P\in E_{i}. In this article, we will prove that there exist infinitely many nontrivial pairs (E1,Ο€1)(E_{1},\pi_{1}) and (E2,Ο€2)(E_{2},\pi_{2}) such that #Ο€1(E1[∞])βˆ©Ο€2(E2[∞])β‰₯22\#\pi_{1}(E_{1}[\infty])\cap\pi_{2}(E_{2}[\infty])\geq22
