Let $A$ be a non-isotrivial almost ordinary abelian surface with possibly bad reductions over a global function field of odd characteristic $p$. Suppose $\Delta$ is an infinite set of positive integers, such that…

We describe several explicit examples of simple abelian surfaces over real quadratic fields with real multiplication and everywhere good reduction. These examples provide evidence for the Eichler-Shimura conjecture for Hilbert modular forms…

Let $D \le 2000$ be a positive discriminant such that $F = \mathbf{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ has narrow class one, and $A/F$ an abelian surface of ${\rm GL}_2$-type with everywhere good reduction. Assuming that $A$ is modular, we show that $A$ is…

Heuristics based on the Sato--Tate conjecture suggest that an abelian surface defined over a number field has infinitely many places of split reduction. We prove this result for abelian surfaces having real multiplication. Similar to…

We show that abelian surfaces (and consequently curves of genus 2) over totally real fields are potentially modular. As a consequence, we obtain the expected meromorphic continuation and functional equations of their Hasse--Weil zeta…

We compute an equation for a modular abelian surface $A$ that has everywhere good reduction over the quadratic field $K = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{61})$ and that does not admit a principal polarization over $K$.

We prove that any abelian surface defined over $\Q$ of $GL_2$-type having quaternionic multiplication and good reduction at 3 is modular. We generalize the result to higher dimensional abelian varieties with ``sufficiently many…

A smooth algebraic surface $S$ is said to be \emph{isogenous to a product of unmixed type} if there exist two smooth curves $C, F$ and a finite group $G$, acting faithfully on both $C$ and $F$ and freely on their product, so that $S=(C…

We construct infinitely many abelian surfaces A defined over the rational numbers such that, for a prime ell <= 7, the ell-torsion subgroup of A is not isomorphic as a Galois module to the ell-torsion subgroup of its dual. We do this by…

We study abelian surfaces defined over finite fields which do not contain any possibly singular curve of genus less than or equal to $3$. Firstly, we complete and expand the characterisation of isogeny classes of abelian surfaces with no…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $k$ be a number field. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $k$. We prove that if $p$ is odd, then the local-global divisibility by any power of $p$ holds for the torsion points of $E$. We also show…

We show the existence of abelian surfaces $A$ over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ having good reduction with supersingular special fibre whose associated $p$-adic Galois module $V_p(A)$ is not semisimple.

We prove the non-existence of elliptic curves having good reduction everywhere over some real quadratic fields.

Let $A=E \times E_{ss}$ be a principally polarized almost ordinary split abelian surface over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We give asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the number of principally polarized abelian surfaces over…

We give a classification of all principally polarized abelian surfaces that admit an $(l,l)$-isogeny to themselves, and show how to compute all the abelian surfaces that occur. We make the classification explicit in the simplest case $l=2$.…

Given a minimal surface equipped with a generically finite map to an Abelian variety, we give an optimal bound on the canonical degree of a rational or an elliptic curve. As a corollary, we obtain the finiteness of rational and elliptic…

We provide examples of abelian surfaces over number fields $K$ whose reductions at almost all good primes possess an isogeny of prime degree $\ell$ rational over the residue field, but which themselves do not admit a $K$-rational…

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 describe an efficient algorithm which, given a principally polarized (p.p.) abelian surface $A$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with geometric endomorphism ring equal to $\mathbb{Z}$, computes all the other p.p. abelian surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}$ that…

We study Le Potier's strange duality conjecture for moduli spaces of sheaves over generic abelian surfaces. We prove the isomorphism for abelian surfaces which are products of elliptic curves, when the moduli spaces consist of sheaves of…
