Finite group subschemes of abelian varieties over finite fields

Abstract

Let AA be an abelian variety over a finite field kk. The kk-isogeny class of AA is uniquely determined by the Weil polynomial fAf_A. We assume that fAf_A is separable. For a given prime number chark\ell\neq\mathrm{char}\, k we give a classification of group schemes B[]B[\ell], where BB runs through the isogeny class, in terms of certain Newton polygons associated to fAf_A. As an application we classify zeta functions of Kummer surfaces over kk.
