Superspecial primes for QM abelian surfaces over real number fields

Number Theory 2025-11-12 v1

Abstract

Baba and Granath generalize Elkies' theorem on infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves to abelian surfaces with quaternionic multiplication of discriminant 66, whose field of moduli is Q\mathbb{Q} and which is a Jacobian in characteristic 22 and 33. We extend the field of moduli to any number field with a real embedding, and weaken the local conditions at 22 and 33. The proof relies on the intersection theory of Heegner divisors on Shimura curves.
