Geometric decomposition of abelian varieties of order 1

Number Theory 2022-08-16 v2 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

Since the 1970s, the complete classification (up to isogeny) of abelian varieties over finite fields with trivial group of rational points has been known from results of Madan--Pal and Robinson; with two exceptions these are all defined over F2\mathbb{F}_2. We determine the decomposition of these varieties into simple factors over an algebraic closure of F2\mathbb{F}_2; this requires solving a polynomial equation in three roots of unity.
