Associated to an abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g$ over a number field $K$ is a Galois representation $\rho_A\colon Gal(\bar{K}/K)\to GL_{2g}(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$. The representation $\rho_A$ encodes the Galois action on the torsion points…
Fix an abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g\geq 1$ defined over a number field $K$. For each prime $\ell$, the Galois action on the $\ell$-power torsion points of $A$ induces a representation $\rho_{A,\ell}\colon Gal_K \to…
In this article we study the endomorphism algebras of abelian varieties $A$ defined over a given number field $K$ with large cyclic 2-torsion fields. A key step in doing so is to provide criteria for all the endomorphisms of $A$ to be…
A classical theorem by K. Ribet asserts that an abelian variety defined over the maximal cyclotomic extension $K$ of a number field has only finitely many torsion points. We show that this statement can be viewed as a particular case of a…

Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
