Abstract: The strong Bombieri-Lang conjecture postulates that, for every variety $X$ of general type over a field $k$ finitely generated over $mathbbQ$, there exists an open subset $UsubsetX$ such that $U(K)$ is finite for every finitely generated extension $K/k$. The weak Bombieri-Lang conjecture postulates that, for every positive dimensional variety $X$ of general type over a field $k$ finitely generated over $mathbbQ$, the rational points $X(k)$ are not dense. Furthermore, Lang conjectured that every variety of general type $X$ over a field of characteristic $0$ contains an open subset $UsubsetX$ such that every subvariety of $U$ is of general type, this statement is usually called geometric Lang conjecture. We reduce the strong Bombieri-Lang conjecture to the case $k=mathbbQ$. Assuming the geometric Lang conjecture, we reduce the weak Bombieri-Lang conjecture to $k=mathbbQ$, too.
