Let $L$ be a number field and let $\ell$ be a prime number. Rasmussen and Tamagawa conjectured, in a precise sense, that abelian varieties whose field of definition of the $\ell$-power torsion is both a pro-$\ell$ extension of $L(\mu_\ell)$…

We consider mod $p$ Hilbert modular forms for a totally real field $F$, viewed as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties in prime characteristic $p$. For a Hecke eigenform of arbitrary weight, we prove the…

We introduce the N\'eron component series of an abelian variety $A$ over a complete discretely valued field. This is a power series in $\Z[[T]]$, which measures the behaviour of the number of components of the N\'eron model of $A$ under…

Let $X/K$ be a variety over a field, and $A/K$ an abelian variety. A regular homomorphism to $A$ (in codimension $i$) induces, for every smooth geometrically connected pointed $K$-scheme $(T,t_0)$ and every cycle class $Z \in CH^i(T\times…

We construct, for every prime p, a function field K of characteristic p and an ordinary abelian variety A over K, with no isotrivial factors, that admits an etale self-isogeny of p-power degree. As a consequence, we deduce that there exist…

In this paper we give a short, elementary proof of the following too extreme cases of the Leopoldt conjecture: the case when $\K/\Q$ is a solvable extension and the case when it is a totally real extension in which $p$ splits completely.…

Let A be an abelian variety of positive dimension defined over a number field K and let Kbar be a fixed algebraic closure of K. For each element sigma of the absolute Galois group Gal(Kbar/K), let Kbar(sigma) be the fixed field of sigma in…

In a recent paper, Moshe Jarden proposed a conjecture, later named the Kuykian conjecture, which states that if A is an abelian variety defined over a Hilbertian field K, then every intermediate field of K(A_{tor})/K is Hilbertian. We prove…

This paper is withdrawn since we found a flaw in the proof of Theorem 4, asserting that the base locus of the complete linear system of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety is reduced. The error is in page 7, line $ -14$, where…

We prove the existence of an Abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g$ over $\Qa$ which is not isogenous to any Jacobian, subject to the necessary condition $g>3$. Recently, C.Chai and F.Oort gave such a proof assuming the Andr\'e-Oort…

The Addition Theorem for the algebraic entropy of group endomorphisms of torsion abelian groups was proved in [4]. Later, this result was extended to all abelian groups [3] and, recently, to all torsion finitely quasihamiltonian groups [7].…

Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…

We show that the usual Hodge conjecture implies the general Hodge conjecture for certain abelian varieties of type III, and use this to deduce the general Hodge conjecture for all powers of certain 4-dimensional abelian varieties of type…

We show that a principally polarized abelian variety over a field $k$ is, as an abelian variety, a direct summand of a product of Jacobians of curves which contain a $k$-point if and only if the polarization and the minimal class are both…

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…

The Torsion Anomalous Conjecture (TAC) states that a subvariety V of an abelian variety A has only finitely many maximal torsion anomalous subvarieties. In this work we prove, with an effective method, some cases of the TAC when the ambient…

We prove new results on the distribution of rational points on ramified covers of abelian varieties over finitely generated fields $k$ of characteristic zero. For example, given a ramified cover $\pi : X \to A$, where $A$ is an abelian…

We prove that the standard conjecture of Hodge type holds for powers of abelian threefolds. Along the way, we also prove the conjecture for powers of simple abelian variety of prime dimension over finite fields, and in other related cases…

Let $A=\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbb{F}_q$, and $F$ be the field of fractions of $A$. Let $\phi$ be a Drinfeld $A$-module of rank $r\geq 2$ over $F$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak{p}\lhd A$, one can…

We show that, for an abelian variety defined over a $p$-adic field $K$ which has potential good reduction, its torsion subgroup with values in the composite field of $K$ and a certain Lubin-Tate extension over a $p$-adic field is finite.
