A note on the order of the Tate--Shafarevich group modulo squares

Number Theory 2024-04-26 v1

Abstract

We investigate the order of the Tate--Shafarevich group of abelian varieties modulo rational squares. Our main result shows that every square-free natural number appears as the non square-free part of the Tate--Shafarevich group of some abelian variety, thereby validating a conjecture of W. Stein.
