For a number field $F$ and a prime number $p$, the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-torsion module of the Galois group of the maximal abelian pro-$p$ extension of $F$ unramified outside $p$ over $F$, denoted as $\mathcal{T}_p(F)$, is an important subject in…

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field F with End(A/F) commutative. Let S be a subgroup of A(F) and let x be a point of A(F). Suppose that for almost all places v of F the reduction of x modulo v lies in the reduction of S modulo…

We produce new explicit examples of genus-2 curves over the rational numbers whose Jacobian varieties have rational torsion points of large order. In particular, we produce a family of genus-2 curves over Q whose Jacobians have a rational…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a field finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$. We show that the finiteness of the $\ell$-primary torsion subgroup of the higher Brauer group is a sufficient criterion for the Tate conjecture to hold.…

We prove that a natural signed count of the $2$-torsion points on a real principally polarized abelian variety $A$ always equals to $2^{g}$ where $g$ is the dimension of $A$. When $A$ is the Jacobian of a real curve we derive signed counts…

Given a global field K and a positive integer n, there exists an abelian extension L/K (of exponent n) such that the local degree of L/K is equal to n at every finite prime of K, and is equal to two at the real primes if n=2. As a…

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…

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…

Originally motivated by questions of P. Etingof related to growth rates of tensor powers in symmetric tensor categories, we obtain general bounds on the order of finite subgroups of ${\rm GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ with restricted composition…

We study the behavior of the greatest common divisor of a^k-1 and b^k-1, where a,b are fixed integers or polynomials, and k varies. In the integer case, we conjecture that when a and b are multiplicatively independent and in addition a-1…

Let $A \rightarrow S$ be an abelian scheme over a $p$-adic field, and let $s \colon S \rightarrow A$ be a section. We study the torsion locus $\bigcup \limits_{n \geq 1} s^{-1}(A[n])$ on $S$, and we show that torsion points on $S$ of…

We prove that the torsion subgroup of the abelian fundamental group is finite for a regular geometrically integral projective variety over a local field. We also study the structure of $SK_1(X)$ for a regular projective variety $X$ over a…

Let $A$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety without (potential) complex multiplication, defined over the number field $K$. Suppose that either $\dim A=2$ or $A$ is of $\operatorname{GL}_2$-type: we give an explicit bound $\ell_0(A,K)$…

To a symmetric, relatively ample line bundle on an abelian scheme one can associate a linear combination of the determinant bundle and the relative canonical bundle, which is a torsion element in the Picard group of the base. We improve the…

In the study of the local dynamics of a germ of diffeomorphism fixing the origin in C, an important problem is to determine the centralizer of the germ in the group Diff(C,0) of germs of diffeomorphisms fixing the origin. When the germ is…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $K$ with good reduction outside a finite set of primes $S$. We show that if the $\ell$-torsion subgroup schemes $A[\ell^n]$ lie in a certain category of group schemes, then $A[\ell^n]$ does…

We compute the Mordell-Weil groups of the modular Jacobian varieties of hyperelliptic modular curves $X_1(M, MN)$ over every number field which is the composition of quadratic fields. Also we prove criteria for the existence of elliptic…

Let $q$ be a power of the prime number $p$, let $K={\mathbb F}_q(t)$, and let $r\ge 2$ be an integer. For points ${\mathbf a}, {\mathbf b}\in K$ which are $\mathbb{F}_q$-linearly independent, we show that there exist positive constants…

Let $D$ be an odd square-free positive integer and $C$ a divisor of $D$. For any quadratic character $\chi$ modulo $C$, we prove that the $\chi$-part of the group $J_0(DC)_\text{tor}$ of torsion points of $J_0(DC)$ coincides with the…
