We construct arithmetic toroidal compactifications of the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties with parahoric level structure. To this end, we extend the methods of Faltings and Chai to a case of bad reduction. ----- Nous…
We use twisted sheaves to study the problem of index reduction for Brauer classes. In general terms, this problem may be phrased as follows: given a field $k$, a $k$-variety $X$, and a class $\alpha \in \Br(k)$, compute the index of the…
N\'eron models of abelian varieties do not necessarily exist if the base $S$ has dimension higher than 1. We introduce a new condition, called toric additivity, on a family of smooth curves having nodal reduction over a normal crossing…
In this paper we consider ideal sheaves associated to the singular loci of a divisor in a linear system $|L|$ of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety. We prove an effective result on their (continuous) global generation, after…
We extend the Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer symplectic reduction theorem to the setting of multisymplectic manifolds. In this context, we investigate the dependence of the reduced space on the reduction parameters. With respect to a distinguished…
We classify elliptic curves over the rationals whose N\'eron model over the integers is semi-abelian, with good reduction at p=2, and whose Mordell--Weil group contains an element of order two that stays non-trivial at p=2. Furthermore, we…
In this part of the series, we shall investigate Deligne-Mumford semistable reductions from the point of view of numerical invariants. As an application, we obtain two numerical criterions for a base change to be stabilizing, and for a…
We study when the stable category of an abelian category modulo a full additive subcategory is balanced and, in case the subcategory is functorially finite, we study a weak version of balance. Precise necessary and sufficient conditions are…
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…
Grothendieck defined a group that represents the local obstruction for an abelian variety to have semi-stable reduction. These groups were studied by Silverberg and Zarhin and more recently by the author in order to give a group theoretic…
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…
We prove an equidistribution result for small subvarieties of an abelian variety which generalizes the Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang theorem on equidistribution of small points.
This technical note aims at evaluating an asymptotic lower bound on abelian Ramsey lengths.
We consider families of smooth projective curves of genus 2 with a single point removed and study their integral points. We show that in many such families there is a dense set of fibres for which the integral points can be effectively…
We study the moduli space of abelian threefolds with Iwahori level structure in positive characteristic. We explicitly determine the fibers of the canonical projection to the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties and draw…
If A is an abelian variety over a number field K, and L is a (possibly infinite) extension of K generated by torsion points of A, then the quotient of A(L) by its torsion subgroup is a free abelian group.
We first provide an overview of several results dealing with the genus of a division algebra and highlight the role of ramification in its analysis. We then give a survey of recent developments on the genus problem for simple algebraic…
We present classical and new results on the size of the subgroup of homotheties of $\ell$-adic representations associated to the torsion of an abelian variety. From these estimates, we derive uniform and explicit bounds for the…
This paper extends a number of known results on slope-semistable sheaves from the classical case to the setting where polarisations are given by movable curve classes. As applications, we obtain new flatness results for reflexive sheaves on…
Following the work of Mestre, we use Weil's explicit formulas to compute explicit lower bounds on the conductors of elliptic curves and abelian varieties over number fields. Moreover, we obtain bounds for the conductor of elliptic curves…
