Let $A$ be a non-zero abelian variety over a field $F$ that is not algebraic over a finite field. We prove that the rational rank of the abelian group $A(F)$ is infinite when $F$ is large in the sense of Pop (also called ample). The main…

If the $\ell$-adic cohomology of a projective smooth variety, defined over a $\frak{p}$-adic field $K$ with finite residue field $k$, is supported in codimension $\ge 1$, then any model over the ring of integers of $K$ has a $k$-rational…

We discuss methods for using the Weil polynomial of an isogeny class of abelian varieties over a finite field to determine properties of the curves (if any) whose Jacobians lie in the isogeny class. Some methods are strong enough to show…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…

Let $S$ be a class of groups and let $f_S (n)$ be the number of isomorphism classes of groups in $S$ of order $n$. Let $f(n)$ count the number of groups of order $n$ up to isomorphism. The asymptotic bounds for $f(n)$ behave differently…

Let $A$ and $B$ be abelian varieties defined over the function field $k(S)$ of a smooth algebraic variety $S/k.$ We establish criteria, in terms of restriction maps to subvarieties of $S,$ for existence of various important classes of…

We give algorithms to compute isomorphism classes of ordinary abelian varieties defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ whose characteristic polynomial (of Frobenius) is square-free and of abelian varieties defined over the prime field…

Let $k$ be an algebraic extension of $\mathbb F_p$ and $K/k$ a regular extension of fields (e.g. $\mathbb F_p(T)/\mathbb F_p$). Let $A$ be a $K$-abelian variety such that all the isogeny factors are neither isotrivial nor of $p$-rank zero.…

In this note we show that any supersingular abelian variety is isogenous to a superspecial abelian variety without increasing field extensions. The proof uses minimal isogenies and the Galois descent. We then construct a superspecial…

Let K be a number field and A an abelian variety over K. We are interested in the following conjecture of Morita: if the Mumford-Tate group of A does not contain unipotent Q-rational points then A has potentially good reduction at any…

If A is an abelian variety over a number field K, and L is a (possibly infinite) extension of K generated by torsion points of A, then the quotient of A(L) by its torsion subgroup is a free abelian group.

We compute the Grothendieck group of the category of abelian varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$. We also compute the Grothendieck group of the category of $A$-isotypic abelian varieties, for any simple abelian variety $A$,…

We prove new results on the distribution of rational points on ramified covers of abelian varieties over finitely generated fields $k$ of characteristic zero. For example, given a ramified cover $\pi : X \to A$, where $A$ is an abelian…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety of dimension $g$ together with a principal polarization $\phi: A \rightarrow \hat{A}$ defined over a field $k$. Let $\ell$ be an odd integer prime to the characteristic of $k$ and let $K$ be a subgroup of…

Let $k$ be a number field, $\mathbf{G}$ an algebraic group defined over $k$, and $\mathbf{G}(k)$ the group of $k$-rational points in $\mathbf{G}.$ We determine the set of functions on $\mathbf{G}(k)$ which are of positive type and…

For a prime number $\ell$, an isogeny class $\mathcal{A}$ of abelian varieties is called $\ell$-cyclic if every variety in $\mathcal{A}$ have a cyclic $\ell$-part of its group of rational points. More generally, for a finite set of prime…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $K$. If $P$ and $Q$ are $K$-rational points of $A$ such that the order of the reduction of $Q$ divides that of $P$ for all but finitely many primes of the ring of integers of $K$, then there…

We give a classification of maximal elements of the set of finite groups that can be realized as the automorphism groups of polarized abelian threefolds over finite fields.

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…

The classical Mordell-Weil theorem implies that an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$ has only finitely many $K$-rational torsion points. This finitude of torsion still holds even over the cyclotomic extension $K^{\rm…
