Torsion dans un produit de courbes elliptiques

Abstract

Let AA be an abelian variety defined over a number field KK, the number of torsion points rational over a finite extension LL is bounded polynomially in terms of the degree [L:K][L:K]. We formulate a question suggesting the optimal exponent for this bound in terms of the dimension of the Mumford-Tate groups of the abelian subvarieties of AA; we study the behaviour under product and then give a positive answer to our question when AA is the product of elliptic curves.
