On Grothendieck's section conjecture for curves of index $1$ (2305.10088v1)

Abstract: We prove that every hyperbolic curve with a faithful action of a non-cyclic $p$-group (with a few exceptions if $p=2$) has a twisted form of index $1$ which satisfies Grothendieck's section conjecture. Furthermore, we prove that for every hyperbolic curve $S$ over a field $k$ finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$ there exists a finite extension $K/k$ and a finite \'etale cover $C\to S_{K}$ such that $C$ satisfies the conjecture.
