Ranks of elliptic curves in families of quadratic twists.
The main result of this paper implies that if an abelian variety over a field has a maximal isotropic subgroup of -torsion points all of which are defined over , and , then the abelian variety has semistable reduction away from . This result can be viewed as an extension of Raynaud’s theorem that if an abelian variety and all its -torsion points are defined over a field and , then the abelian variety has semistable reduction away from . We also give information about the Néron models...
