We prove the first known nontrivial bounds on the sizes of the 2-torsion subgroups of the class groups of cubic and higher degree number fields $K$ (the trivial bound being $O_{\epsilon}(|{\rm Disc}(K)|^{1/2+\epsilon})$ by Brauer--Siegel).…

The geometric torsion conjecture asserts that the torsion part of the Mordell--Weil group of a family of abelian varieties over a complex quasiprojective curve is uniformly bounded in terms of the genus of the curve. We prove the conjecture…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group. In this paper we obtain bounds for the exponent of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ and of $\nu(G)$, which is a certain extension of $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. In particular, we bound…

We prove that for a non-isotrivial abelian scheme over a smooth curve, the genus of a generic sequence of multi-sections with small heights tends to infinity. As an application, we give a new proof of the uniform boundedness of…

For every $p$-group of order $p^n$ with the derived subgroup of order $p^m$, Rocco in \cite{roc} has shown that the order of tensor square of $G$ is at most $p^{n(n-m)}$. In the present paper not only we improve his bound for non-abelian…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $A$ be an Abelian variety over $K$ which has no CM isogeny-factors over $\overline{K}$. We prove that $A$ has only finitely many torsion points over the maximal $n$-step-solvable extension of $K$ for any…

In this work, we identify a certain family of higher-dimensional formal groups over the ring of $p$-adic integers such that any two formal groups in that class coincide if they share infinitely many torsion points. As a useful application,…

Let $A$ be an abelian surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose geometric endomorphism ring is a maximal order in a non-split quaternion algebra. Inspired by Mazur's theorem for elliptic curves, we show that the torsion subgroup of $A(\mathbb{Q})$ is…

The first $\ell^2$ Betti number of a group is non-decreasing under various embeddings arising from first order logic. Strict inequality is proved for elementary embeddings of non-abelian proper subgroups within torsion free hyperbolic…

We study the Brauer group of an abelian variety A over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p focusing on the p-primary torsion, the key part of which is a certain quasi-algebraic unipotent group U_A. We determine its dimension…

In this article, we investigate the possible torsion subgroups of twists of abelian varieties with good reduction. As an application, we prove a theorem concerning ramified primes over any quadratic extension where odd-order torsion growth…

In this paper it is shown that for every prime p>5 the dimension of the p-torsion in the Tate-Shafarevich group of E/K can be arbitrarily large, where E is an elliptic curve defined over a number field K, with [K:Q] bounded by a constant…

In this paper, poor abelian groups are characterized. It is proved that an abelian group is poor if and only if its torsion part contains a direct summand isomorphic to $\oplus_{p \in P} \Z_p$, where $P$ is the set of prime integers. We…

Let $X \hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^r$ be a smooth projective variety defined by homogeneous polynomials of degree $\leq d$. We give explicit upper bounds on the order of the torsion subgroup $(\mathrm{NS} \, X)_{\mathrm{tor}}$ of the…

We prove that torsion in the abelianizations of open normal subgroups in finitely presented pro-$p$ groups can grow arbitrarily fast. By way of contrast in $\mathbb Z_p$- analytic groups the torsion growth is at most polynomial.

The Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristics lead one to conjecture that the average size of the $p$-torsion in class groups of $G$-extensions of a number field is finite. In a 2021 paper, Lemke Oliver, Wang, and Wood proved this conjecture in the…

We show that, for any prime $p$, there exist absolutely simple abelian varieties over $\mathbb{Q}$ with arbitrarily large $p$-torsion in their Tate-Shafarevich group. To prove this, we construct explicit $\mu_p$-covers of Jacobians of the…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group of order $p^n$. YA. G. Berkovich (Journal of Algebra {\bf 144}, 269-272 (1991)) proved that $G$ is elementary abelian $p$-group if and only if the order of its Schur multiplier, $M(G)$, is at the maximum case.…

Let $K$ and $k$ be $p$-adic fields. Let $L$ be the composite field of $K$ and a certain Lubin-Tate extension over $k$ (including the case where $L=K(\mu_{p^{\infty}})$). In this paper, we show that there exists an explicitly described…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $k$ and $\ell$ a prime integer. When $E$ has at least one $k$-rational point of exact order $\ell$, we derive a uniform upper bound $\exp(C \log B / \log \log B)$ for the number of…
