Let $A$ be an abelian scheme over a smooth affine complex variety $S$, $\varOmega_A$ the $\sO_S$-module of $1$-forms of the first kind on $A$, $\sD_S\varOmega_A$ the $\sD_S$-module spanned by $\varOmega_A$ in the first algebraic De Rham…

We prove, assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the Andre-Oort conjecture for Hilbert modular surfaces. More precisely, let K be a real quadratic field and let S be the coarse moduli space of complex abelian surfaces with…

Let $k$ be a field containing an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. If $G$ is a finite group and $D$ is a division algebra over $k$, finite dimensional over its center, we can associate to a faithful $G$-grading on $D$ a…

Let $X$ be a normal complex projective variety, $T\subseteq X$ a subvariety, $a\colon X\rightarrow A$ a morphism to an abelian variety such that $\rm{Pic}^0(A)$ injects into $\rm{Pic}^0(T)$ and let $L$ be a line bundle on $X$. Denote by…

This paper justifies an assertion in (Elder, Proc AMS 137 (2009), no 4, 1193--1203) that Galois scaffolds make the questions of Galois module structure tractable. Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$ and let $K=k((T))$. For the…

Let L be a quadratic imaginary field, inert at the rational prime p. Fix an integer n at least 3, and let M be the moduli space (in characteristic p) of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension n equipped with an action by O_L…

Let A be an isogeny class of abelian surfaces over F_q with Weil polynomial x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + aqx + q^2. We show that A does not contain a surface that has a principal polarization if and only if a^2 - b = q and b < 0 and all prime…

We prove that Shimura varieties of abelian type with infinite level at $p$ are perfectoid. As a corollary, the moduli spaces of polarized K3 surfaces with infinite level at $p$ are also perfectoid.

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…

We consider algebras and Frobenius algebras, internal to a monoidal category, that are graded over a finite abelian group. For the case that A is a twisted group algebra in a linear abelian monoidal category we obtain a graded…

There is a well known theorem by Deuring which gives a criterion for when the reduction of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication (CM) by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field has ordinary or supersingular reduction.…

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.

In this note we prove that a smooth projective variety (defined over a field $k$) of non-negative Kodaira dimension that has a $k$-rational point and a polarized self map must be a finite free quotient of an abelian variety.

The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-variety $G$ there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points…

Let $\lambda\colon A\rightarrow A^{\vee}$ be a polarization on an abelian variety over a field $k$. If $k$ is not algebraically closed, there might not exist an ample line bundle on $A$ defined over $k$ that represents $\lambda$. To remedy…

We show that a generic principally polarized abelian variety (ppav) is uniquely determined by its theta hyperplanes. These are the non-projectivized version of those studied by Caporaso and Sernesi (see math.AG/0204164), which in a sense…

We study moduli spaces of abelian varieties in positive characteristic, more specifically the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties on the one hand, and the analogous space with Iwahori type level structure, on the other…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group. We show that the isomorphism type of the maximal abelian direct factor of $G$, as well as the isomorphism type of the group algebra over $\mathbb F_p$ of the non-abelian remaining direct…

We affirmatively answer a conjecture in the preprint ``Essential dimension and algebraic stacks,'' proving that the essential dimension of an abelian variety over a number field is infinite.
