A higher dimensional Hilbert irreducibility theorem

Abstract

Assuming the weak Bombieri-Lang conjecture, we prove that a generalization of Hilbert's irreducibility theorem holds for families of geometrically mordellic varieties (for instance, families of hyperbolic curves). As an application we prove that, assuming Bombieri-Lang, there are no polynomial bijections $\mathbb{Q}\times \mathbb{Q}\to \mathbb{Q}$.
