Abstract

Let AA be an abelian variety over Fq\mathbb{F}_q. Let hA(t)h_A(t) be the characteristic polynomial of AA. Rybakov showed that if hA(t)h_A(t) is squarefree and GG is any finite group with G=hA(1)|G| = h_A(1), then G=A(Fq)G = A'(\mathbb{F}_q) for some AA' isogenous to AA if and only if the th\ell^{th} Hodge polygon of GG is under the th\ell^{th} Newton polygon of hA(1t)h_A(1-t) for all primes \ell. In this paper, we will extend this result to get a classification theorem for the group structure of all abelian varieties.
