We prove a uniform version of a finiteness conjecture due to Rasmussen and Tamagawa in the case of CM abelian varieties. This extends recent results concerning CM elliptic curves to CM abelian varieties of arbitrary dimension.

Let $L$ be a number field and let $\ell$ be a prime number. Rasmussen and Tamagawa conjectured, in a precise sense, that abelian varieties whose field of definition of the $\ell$-power torsion is both a pro-$\ell$ extension of $L(\mu_\ell)$…

In this paper, we study a conjecture of Rasmussen and Tamagawa, on the finiteness of the set of isomorphism classes of abelian varieties with constrained prime power torsion. Our result is related with abelian varieties which have complex…

An abelian variety $A/K$ is heavenly at $\ell$ if the extension $K(A[\ell^\infty])/K(\mu_{\ell^{\infty}}\!)$ is both pro-$\ell$ and unramified away from $\ell$. It is known that for a fixed quadratic field $K$, the number of $K$-isomorphism…

Heavenly abelian varieties are abelian varieties defined over number fields that exhibit constrained $\ell$-adic Galois representations for some rational prime $\ell$. At the ICMS Workshop held in November 2024, we presented evidence for…

Let $K$ be a number field. We present several new finiteness results for isomorphism classes of abelian varieties over $K$ whose $\ell$-power torsion fields are arithmetically constrained for some rational prime $\ell$. Such arithmetic…

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…

Fix a number field $k$ and a rational prime $\ell$. We consider abelian varieties whose $\ell$-power torsion generates a pro-$\ell$ extension of $k(\mu_{\ell^\infty})$ which is unramified away from $\ell$. It is a necessary, but not…

By reformulating and extending results of Elkies, we prove some results on $\mathbb Q$-curves over number fields of odd degree. We show that, over such fields, the only prime isogeny degrees~$\ell$ which an elliptic curve without CM may…

This paper gives a conjectural characterization of those elliptic curves over the field of complex numbers which "should" be covered by standard modular curves. The elliptic curves in question all have algebraic j-invariant, so they can be…

Merel has shown that the order of torsion subgroup of an elliptic curve over a number field can be bounded in terms of only the degree of the number field. The purpose of this note is to investigate what could be the `right bound'. In this…

The Colmez conjecture relates the Faltings height of an abelian variety with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of a CM field $E$ to logarithmic derivatives of certain Artin $L$--functions at $s=0$. In this paper, we prove that…

We study abelian varieties and K3 surfaces with complex multiplication defined over number fields of fixed degree. We show that these varieties fall into finitely many isomorphism classes over an algebraic closure of the field of rational…

Let $E/F$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$ with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ such that the torsion points of $E$ generate over $F$ an abelian extension of $K$. In…

We formulate the notion of \emph{typical boundedness} of torsion on a family of abelian varieties defined over number fields. This means that the torsion subgroups of elements in the family can be made uniformly bounded by removing from the…

In two earlier articles, we proved that, if the Hodge conjecture is true for ALL CM abelian varieties over the complex numbers, then both the Tate conjecture and the standard conjectures are true for abelian varieties over finite fields.…

Suppose $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$. At the 1983 ICM the first author formulated some conjectures that propose a close relationship between the explicit class field theory construction of certain abelian extensions of…

The torsion anomalous conjecture states that for any variety V in an abelian variety there are only finitely many maximal V-torsion anomalous varieties. We prove this conjecture for V of codimension 2 in a product E^N of any elliptic curve…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a $p$-adic field $K$ and $L$ an algebraic infinite extension over $K$. We consider the finiteness of the torsion part of the group of rational points $A(L)$ under some assumptions. In 1975, Hideo Imai…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field, and let $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$ be an order in $K$ of conductor $f\geq 1$. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with CM by $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$, such that $E$ is defined by a model over $\mathbb{Q}(j_{K,f})$,…
