On p-adic monodromy.
Let be a central -curve over a polyquadratic field . In this article we give an upper bound for prime divisors of the order of the -rational torsion subgroup (see Theorems 1.1 and 1.2). The notion of central -curves is a generalization of that of elliptic curves over . Our result is a generalization of Theorem 2 of Mazur [12], and it is a precision of the upper bounds of Merel [15] and Oesterlé [17].
Let be the ring of integers of a totally real field of degree . We study the reduction of the moduli space of separably polarized abelian -varieties of dimension modulo for a fixed prime . The invariants and related conditions for the objects in the moduli space are discussed. We construct a scheme-theoretic stratification by -types on the Rapoport locus and study the relation with the slope stratification. In particular, we recover the main results of Goren and Oort [J. Alg. Geom.,...
We show in detail that the category of general Roth systems or the category of semi-stable systems of linear inequalities of slope zero is a neutral Tannakian category. On the way, we present a new proof of the semi-stability of the tensor product of semi-stable systems. The proof is based on a numerical criterion for a system of linear inequalities to be semi-stable.
