Computing square-free polarized abelian varieties over finite fields

Algebraic Geometry 2022-01-19 v3 Number Theory

Abstract

We give algorithms to compute isomorphism classes of ordinary abelian varieties defined over a finite field Fq\mathbb{F}_q whose characteristic polynomial (of Frobenius) is square-free and of abelian varieties defined over the prime field Fp\mathbb{F}_p whose characteristic polynomial is square-free and does not have real roots. In the ordinary case we are also able to compute the polarizations and the group of automorphisms (of the polarized variety) and, when the polarization is principal, the period matrix.
