The results in this paper imply that for every number field F and positive integer r, there exists an F-isogeny class of abelian varieties such that r divides the degree of every F-polarization on every abelian variety in the isogeny class.

We study the isogenies of certain abelian varieties over finite fields with non-commutative endomorphism algebras with a view to potential use in isogeny-based cryptography. In particular, we show that any two such abelian varieties with…

For varieties given by an equation N_{K/k}(\Xi)=P(t), where N_{K/k} is the norm form attached to a field extension K/k and P(t) in k[t] is a polynomial, three topics have been investigated: (1) computation of the unramified Brauer group of…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. If $\mathfrak{p}$ is a prime of $K$ of good reduction for $A$, let $A(K)_\mathfrak{p}$ denote the image of the Mordell-Weil group via reduction modulo $\mathfrak{p}$. We prove…

Brumer and Kramer gave bounds on local conductor exponents for an abelian variety $A/\mathbb Q$ in terms of the dimension of $A$ and the localization prime $p$. Here we give improved bounds in the case that $A$ has maximal real…

Let $A$ and $B$ be abelian varieties defined over the function field $k(S)$ of a smooth algebraic variety $S/k.$ We establish criteria, in terms of restriction maps to subvarieties of $S,$ for existence of various important classes of…

We prove that if $f:X \rightarrow A$ is a morphism from a smooth projective variety $X$ to an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$, and $G$ is a subgroup of automorphisms of $X$ satisfying certain properties, and if a prime $p$…

This paper proves the following converse to a theorem of Mumford: Let $A$ be a principally polarized abelian variety of dimension five, whose theta divisor has a unique singular point, and suppose that the multiplicity of the singular point…

Let $K$ be a field which is complete for a discrete valuation. We prove a logarithmic version of the N\'eron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion: if $A$ is an abelian variety over $K$ which is cohomologically tame, then $A$ has good reduction in the…

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…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $\phi \in K(t)$ be a rational map of degree at least 2, and let $\alpha, \beta \in K$. We show that if $\alpha$ is not in the forward orbit of $\beta$, then there is a positive proportion of primes ${\mathfrak…
