We show that there exist flat surface bundles with closed leaves having non-trivial normal bundles. This leads us to compute the Abelianisation of surface diffeomorphism groups with marked points. We also extend a formula of Tsuboi that…

An abelian surface $A_{/{\mathbb Q}}$ of prime conductor $N$ is favorable if its 2-division field $F$ is an ${\mathcal S}_5$-extension with ramification index 5 over ${\mathbb Q}_2$. Let $A$ be favorable and let $B$ be any semistable…

We study Galois representations attached to nonsimple abelian varieties over finitely generated fields of arbitrary characteristic. We give sufficient conditions for such representations to decompose as a product, and apply them to prove…

For every prime $p$ and integer $n\ge 3$ we explicitly construct an abelian variety $A/\F_{p^n}$ of dimension $n$ such that for a suitable prime $l$ the group of quasi-isogenies of $A/\F_{p^n}$ of $l$-power degree is canonically a dense…

We discuss the notion of polarised isogenies of abelian varieties, that is, isogenies which are compatible with given principal polarisations. This is motivated by problems of unlikely intersections in Shimura varieties. Our aim is to show…

We determine which complex abelian varieties can be realized as the automorphism group of a smooth projective variety.

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…

We survey variety theory for modules of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, recalling some definitions and basic properties of support and rank varieties where they are known. We focus specifically on properties known for classes of examples…

We introduce higher-order support varieties for pairs of modules over a commutative local complete intersection ring, and give a complete description of which varieties occur as such support varieties. In the context of a group algebra of a…

In this article we study the Honda-Tate theory for log abelian varieties over an fs log point $S=(\mathrm{Spec}(\mathbf{k}),M_S)$ for $\mathbf{k}=\mathbb{F}_q$ a finite field, generalizing the classical Honda-Tate theory for abelian…

Fix a prime number $\ell$. Graphs of isogenies of degree a power of $\ell$ are well-understood for elliptic curves, but not for higher-dimensional abelian varieties. We study the case of absolutely simple ordinary abelian varieties over a…

Let $q$ be an odd power of a prime $p\in \mathbb{N}$, and $\mathrm{PPSP}(\sqrt{q})$ be the finite set of isomorphism classes of principally polarized superspecial abelian surfaces in the simple isogeny class over $\mathbb{F}_q$…

If A and B are abelian varieties over a number field K such that there are non-trivial geometric homomorphisms of abelian varieties between reductions of A and B at most primes of K, then there exists a non-trivial (geometric) homomorphism…

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…

We prove a new Hilbertianity criterion for fields in towers whose steps are Galois with Galois group either abelian or a product of finite simple groups. We then apply this criterion to fields arising from Galois representations. In…

Here we explore the geometry of the osculating spaces to projective varieties of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we classify varieties having very degenerate higher order osculating spaces and we determine mild conditions for the…

Let $n$ be an integer such that the modular curve $X_0(n)$ is hyperelliptic of genus $\ge2$ and such that the Jacobian of $X_0(n)$ has rank $0$ over $\mathbb Q$. We determine all points of $X_0(n)$ defined over quadratic fields, and we give…

We show that for a large class of rings $R$, the number of principally polarized abelian varieties over a finite field in a given simple ordinary isogeny class and with endomorphism ring $R$ is equal either to 0, or to a ratio of class…

A. Weil identified a 2-dimensional space of rational classes of Hodge type (n,n) in the middle cohomology of every 2n-dimensional abelian variety with a suitable complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic number field. These abelian…
