Équidistribution des sous-variétés de petite hauteur

Pascal Autissier (2006)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

On montre dans cet article que le théorème d’équidistribution de Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang concernant les suites de petits points sur les variétés abéliennes s’étend au cas des suites de sous-variétés. On donne également une version quantitative de ce résultat.

Essential dimension of moduli of curves and other algebraic stacks

Patrick Brosnan, Zinovy Reichstein, Angelo Vistoli (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper we consider questions of the following type. Let k be a base field and K / k be a field extension. Given a geometric object X over a field K (e.g. a smooth curve of genus g ), what is the least transcendence degree of a field of definition of X over the base field k ? In other words, how many independent parameters are needed to define X ? To study these questions we introduce a notion of essential dimension for an algebraic stack. Using the resulting theory, we give a complete answer to...

Étale cohomology and reduction of abelian varieties

A. Silverberg, Yu. G. Zarhin (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

In this paper we study the étale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable over a quadratic extension) in terms of the action of the absolute inertia group on the étale cohomology groups with finite coefficients.

Etale coverings of a Mumford curve

Marius Van Der Put (1983)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let the field K be complete w.r.t. a non-archimedean valuation. Let X / K be a Mumford curve, i.e. the irreducible components of the stable reduction of X have genus 0. The abelian etale coverings of X are constructed using the analytic uniformization Ω X and the theta-functions on X . For a local field K one rediscovers G . Frey’s description of the maximal abelian unramified extension of the field of rational functions of X .

Explicit bounds for split reductions of simple abelian varieties

Jeffrey D. Achter (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let X / K be an absolutely simple abelian variety over a number field; we study whether the reductions X 𝔭 tend to be simple, too. We show that if End ( X ) is a definite quaternion algebra, then the reduction X 𝔭 is geometrically isogenous to the self-product of an absolutely simple abelian variety for 𝔭 in a set of positive density, while if X is of Mumford type, then X 𝔭 is simple for almost all 𝔭 . For a large class of abelian varieties with commutative absolute endomorphism ring, we give an explicit upper bound...
