In this paper, we consider Abelian varieties over function fields that arise as twists of Abelian varieties by cyclic covers of irreducible quasi-projective varieties. Then, in terms of Prym varieties associated to the cyclic covers, we…

We study the relationship between the period and the index of a principal homogeneous space over an abelian variety, obtaining results which generalize work of Cassels and Lichtenbaum on curves of genus one. In addition, we show that the…

Recently, Paolini and Shelah have constructed absolutely Hopfian torsion-free abelian groups of any given size. In contrast, we show that this is not necessarily the case for absolutely co-Hopfian groups. We use the infinitary logic to show…

In this paper, we show that there exist families of curves (defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p >2$) whose Jacobians have interesting $p$-torsion. For example, for every $0 \leq f \leq g$, we find the…

We prove, under suitable assumptions, that $p$-torsion Tate-Shafarevich classes for elliptic curves over the rationals are visible in quotients of Jacobians of modular curves, as predicted by a conjecture of Jetchev-Stein. The key…

We consider the so-called {\it strongly co-Hopfian} and {\it uniformly strongly co-Hopfian} Abelian groups, significantly generalizing some important results due to Abdelalim in the J. Math. Analysis (2015). Specifically, we prove that any…

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…

Let $p \geq 2$ be a prime number and let $k$ be a number field. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian variety defined over $k$. We prove that if ${\rm Gal} ( k ( {\mathcal{A}}[p] ) / k )$ contains an element $g$ of order dividing $p-1$ not fixing…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $p$ be an odd prime and $\iota: \overline{\mathbb{Q}}\hookrightarrow \mathbb{C}_p$ an embedding. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $H_{K}$ the corresponding Hilbert class field.…

We exhibit examples of geometrically simple abelian surfaces $A/\mathbb{Q}$ with conductor bounded by $(10\,000)^2$ whose Tate--Shafarevich groups contain a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^2$ for each $p = 5, 7, 11, 13$. To…

The main result of the paper is that if $A$ is an abelian variety over a subfield $F$ of ${\bold C}$, and $A$ has purely multiplicative reduction at a discrete valuation of $F$, then the Hodge group of $A$ is semisimple. Further, we give…

We consider an abelian variety defined over a number field. We give conditional bounds for the order of its Tate-Shafarevich group, as well as conditional bounds for the N\'eron-Tate height of generators of its Mordell-Weil group. The…

We give a structure theorem for the $m$-torsion of the Jacobian of a general superelliptic curve $y^m=F(x)$. We study existence of torsion on curves of the form $y^q=x^p-x+a$ over finite fields of characteristic $p$. We apply those results…

We show that the theory of Galois actions of a torsion Abelian group $A$ is companionable if and only if for each prime $p$, the $p$-primary part of $A$ is either finite or it coincides with the Pr\"{u}fer $p$-group. We also provide a…
