In this paper we study the \'etale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable…
We prove that the $p^\infty$-torsion of the transcendental Brauer group of an abelian variety over a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ is bounded. This answers a (variant of a) question asked by Skorobogatov and Zarhin for…
In a paper of Tate and the author, we conjectured a uniform bound for the p-adic distance of torsion points on a semiabelian variety, not lying in a subvariety, to that subvariety. We survey the progress made on that conjecture and on…
Let A be an abelian variety over C such that the semisimple part of the Hodge group of A is a product of copies of SU(p,1) for some p>1. We show that any effective Tate twist of a Hodge structure occurring in the cohomology of A is…
We consider Tate cycles on an Abelian variety $A$ defined over a sufficiently large number field $K$ and having complex multiplication. We show that there is an effective bound $C = C(A,K)$ so that to check whether a given cohomology class…
In this paper, we formulate and prove a duality for cohomology of curves over perfect fields of positive characteristic with coefficients in Neron models of abelian varieties. This is a global function field version of the author's previous…
In this note, we propose the modular height of an abelian variety defined over a field of finite type over Q. Moreover, we prove its finiteness property.
The main result of this paper concerns the positivity of the Hodge bundles of abelian varieties over global function fields. As applications, we obtain some partial results on the Tate--Shafarevich group and the Tate conjecture of surfaces…
Given a smooth, proper family of varieties in characteristic $p>0$, and a cycle $z$ on a fibre of the family, we formulate a Variational Tate Conjecture characterising, in terms of the crystalline cycle class of $z$, whether $z$ extends…
Using methods of p-adic analysis we give a different proof of Burnside's problem for automorphisms of quasiprojective varieties X defined over a field of characteristic 0. More precisely, we show that any finitely generated torsion subgroup…
Given a field with a set of discrete valuations $V$, we show how the genus of a division algebra over the field is related to the genus of the residue algebras at various valuations in $V$ and the ramification data. When the division…
We prove control theorems for abelian varieties over function fields.
We give a new proof of the Hodge conjecture for abelian fourfolds of Weil type with discriminant 1 and all of their powers. The Hodge conjecture for these abelian fourfolds was proven by Markman using hyperholomorphic sheaves on…
Schmidt and Spie{\ss} described the abelian tame fundamental group of a smooth variety over a finite field by using Suslin homology. In this paper we show that their result generalizes to singular varieties if one uses Weil-Suslin homology…
We prove that a quasi-finite endomorphism of an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, that is injective on the complement of a closed subvariety, is an automorphism. We also prove that an endomorphism…
Suppose $F$ is either a global field or a finitely generated extension of ${\mathbf Q}$, $A$ is an abelian variety over $F$, and $\ell$ is a prime not equal to the characteristic of $F$. Let $Z$ denote the center of the endomorphism algebra…
This note provides an insight to the diophantine properties of abelian surfaces with quaternionic multiplication over number fields. We study the fields of definition of the endomorphisms on these abelian varieties and the images of the…
We call an abelian variety over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ super-isolated if its ($\mathbb{F}_q$-rational) isogeny class contains a single isomorphism class. In this paper, we use the Honda-Tate theorem to characterize super-isolated…
The Tate conjecture for squares of K3 surfaces over finite fields was recently proved by Ito-Ito-Koshikawa. We give a more geometric proof when the characteristic is at least 5. The main idea is to use twisted derived equivalences between…
We study the distribution of algebraic points on curves in abelian varieties over finite fields.
