A bound for the torsion on subvarieties of abelian varieties

Number Theory 2017-10-13 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We give a uniform bound on the degree of the maximal torsion cosets for subvarieties of an abelian variety. The proof combines algebraic interpolation and a theorem of Serre on homotheties in the Galois representation associated to the torsion subgroup of an abelian variety.
