Tate module tensor decompositions and the Sato-Tate conjecture for certain abelian varieties potentially of $\mathrm{GL}_2$-type

Abstract

We introduce a tensor decomposition of the \ell-adic Tate module of an abelian variety A0A_0 defined over a number field which is geometrically isotypic. If A0A_0 is potentially of \GL2\GL_2-type and defined over a totally real number field, we use this decomposition to describe its Sato--Tate group and to prove the Sato--Tate conjecture in certain cases.
