Towards uniformity in the dynamical Bogomolov

Inspired by an analogy between torsion and preperiodic points, Zhang has proposed a dynamical generalization of the classical Manin-Mumford and Bogomolov conjectures. A special case of these conjectures, for `split' maps, has recently been established by Nguyen, Ghioca and Ye. In particular, they show that two rational maps have at most finitely many common preperiodic points, unless they are `related'. Recent breakthroughs by Dimitrov, Gao, Habegger and Kühne have established that the classical Bogomolov conjecture holds uniformly across curves of given genus.
In this talk we discuss uniform versions of the dynamical Bogomolov conjecture across 1-parameter families of certain split maps. To this end, we establish an instance of a 'relative dynamical Bogomolov'. This is work in progress joint with Harry Schmidt (University of Basel).
