Abstract

In this article we consider some questions raised by F. Benoist, E. Bouscaren and A. Pillay. We prove that infinitely pp-divisible points on abelian varieties defined over function fields of transcendence degree one over a finite field are necessarily torsion points. We also prove that when the endomorphism ring of the abelian variety is \mZ\mZ then there are no infinitely pp-divisible points of order a power of pp.
