We prove that there exists an absolute constant $c>0$ such that if an arithmetic progression $\cP$ modulo a prime number $p$ does not contain zero and has the cardinality less than $cp$, then it can not be represented as a product of two…

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.

In this paper, we prove that the number $B(p,g)$ of isomorphism classes of abelian varieties over a prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of dimension $g$ has a lower bound $p^{\frac{1}{2} g^2 (1+o(1))}$ as $g \rightarrow \infty$. This is the first…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K_p = \Q(zeta_p) be the p-cyclotomic field. We apply a Kummer and Stickelberger relation of K_p to some singular not primary numbers A of K_p connected to p-class group of K_p and prove they verify the congruence…

We study the Siegel modular variety $\mathcal{A}_g \otimes \overline{\mathbb{F}}_p$ of genus $g$ and its supersingular locus $\mathcal{S}_g$. As our main result we determine precisely when $\mathcal{S}_g$ is irreducible, and we list all $x$…

Let $P(a,q)$ be the least prime in the arithmetic progression $\{n\equiv a(mod\ q)\}$. In this note, when $q$ has bounded cubic part and $(a,q)=1$, we combine the Heath-Brown's method and the Burgess's bounds for L-functions to obtain $…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated abelian-by-finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p\ge 0$. The Euler class $[k_G]$ of $G$ over $k$ is the class of the trivial $kG$-module in the Grothendieck group $G_0(kG)$. We show that $[k_G]$…

We derive some new results on the k-th barycentric Olson constants of abelian groups (mainly cyclic). This quantity, for a finite abelian (additive) group (G,+), is defined as the smallest integer l such that each subset A of G with at…

We prove that the constant terms of powers of a Laurent polynomial satisfy certain congruences modulo prime powers. As a corollary, the generating series of these numbers considered as a function of a p-adic variable satisfies a non-trivial…

We consider the families of finite Abelian groups $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/p\ZZ$, $\ZZ/p^2\ZZ$ and $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/q\ZZ$ for $p,q$ two distinct prime numbers. For the two first families we give a simple characterization of all functions…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K = Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field. Let v be any primitive root mod p. Let sigma be a Q-isomorphism of K. Let P(sigma) = sigma^{p-2}v^{-(p-2)}+ ... + sigma v^{-1} +1 \in Z[G] where 1 \leq v^n \leq p-1 is a…

Given a positive integer $u$ and a simple algebraic group $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p$, we derive properties about the subvariety $G_{[u]}$ of $G$ consisting of elements of $G$ of order dividing…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian variety over a number field, with a good reduction at a prime ideal containing a prime number $p$. Denote by ${\rm A}$ an abelian variety over a finite field of characteristic $p$, obtained by the reduction…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety of dimension $g$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The paper provides improvements on the Weil estimates for the size of $A(\mathbb{F}_q)$. For an arbitrary value of $q$ we prove $(\lfloor(\sqrt{q}-1)^2…

We prove the modularity of a positive proportion of abelian surfaces over $\mathbf{Q}$. More precisely, we prove the modularity of abelian surfaces which are ordinary at $3$ and are $3$-distinguished, subject to some assumptions on the…

We exhibit invariants of smooth projective algebraic varieties with integer values, whose nonvanishing modulo p prevents the existence of an action without fixed points of certain finite p-groups. The case of base fields of characteristic p…

The results in this paper imply that for every number field F and positive integer r, there exists an F-isogeny class of abelian varieties such that r divides the degree of every F-polarization on every abelian variety in the isogeny class.

Let $q\ne \pm1,v^2$ be a fixed integer, and let $x\geq 1$ be a large number. The least prime number $p \geq3 $ such that $q$ is a primitive root modulo $p$ is conjectured to be $p\ll (\log q)(\log \log q)^3),$ where $\gcd(p,q)=1$. This note…
