The classical Mordell–Weil theorem implies that an abelian variety A over a number field K has only finitely many K-rational torsion points. This finitude of torsion still holds even over the cyclotomic extension K^{\mathrm {cyc}}=K{\mathbb Q}^{\mathrm {ab}} by a result of Ribet. In this article, we consider the finiteness of torsion points of an abelian variety A over the infinite algebraic extension K_B obtained by adjoining the coordinates of all torsion points of an abelian variety B. Assuming the Mumford–Tate conjecture, and up to a finite extension of the base field K, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the finiteness of A(K_B)_{\mathrm tors} in terms of Mumford–Tate groups. We give a complete answer when both abelian varieties have dimension at most 3, or when both have complex multiplication.
For an algebraic K3 surface with complex multiplication (CM), algebraic fibres of the associated twistor space away from the equator are again of CM type. In this paper, we show that algebraic fibres corresponding to points at the same altitude of the twistor base {S^2} \simeq \mathbb{P}_\mathbb{C}^1 share the same CM endomorphism field. Moreover, we determine all the admissible Picard numbers of the twistor fibres.
Given a singular modulus j_0 and a set of rational primes S, we study the problem of effectively determining the set of singular moduli j such that j-j_0 is an S-unit. For every j_0 \neq 0, we provide an effective way of finding this set for infinitely many choices of S. The same is true if j_0=0 and we assume the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis. Certain numerical experiments will also lead to the formulation of a “uniformity conjecture” for singular S-units.
We construct examples of smooth proper rigid-analytic varieties admitting formal models with projective special fibers and violating Hodge symmetry for cohomology in degrees {\geq }3. This answers negatively the question raised by Hansen and Li.
We give a formula for the class number of an arbitrary complex mutliplication (CM) algebraic torus over \mathbb {Q}. This is proved based on results of Ono and Shyr. As applications, we give formulas for numbers of polarized CM abelian varieties, of connected components of unitary Shimura varieties and of certain polarized abelian varieties over finite fields. We also give a second proof of our main result.
We give a bound on the primes dividing the denominators of invariants of Picard curves of genus 3 with complex multiplication. Unlike earlier bounds in genus 2 and 3, our bound is based, not on bad reduction of curves, but on a very explicit type of good reduction. This approach simultaneously yields a simplification of the proof and much sharper bounds. In fact, unlike all previous bounds for genus 3, our bound is sharp enough for use in explicit constructions of Picard curves.
For a certain class of hypergeometric functions _{3}F_{2} with rational parameters, we give a sufficient condition for the special value at 1 to be expressed in terms of logarithms of algebraic numbers. We give two proofs, both of which are algebro-geometric and related to higher regulators.
We prove the Gross–Deligne conjecture on CM periods for motives associated with {{H}^{2}} of certain surfaces fibered over the projective line. Then we prove for the same motives a formula which expresses the {{K}_{1}}-regulators in terms of hypergeometric functions _{3}{{F}_{2}}, and obtain a new example of non-trivial regulators.
We consider Tate cycles on an Abelian variety A defined over a sufficiently large number field K and having complexmultiplication. We show that there is an effective bound C\,=\,C(A,\,K) so that to check whether a given cohomology class is a Tate class on A, it suffices to check the action of Frobenius elements at primes v of norm \le \,C. We also show that for a set of primes v of K of density 1, the space of Tate cycles on the special fibre {{A}_{v}} of the Néron model of A is isomorphic to the space of Tate cycles on A itself.
In this paper, we reinterpret the Colmez conjecture on the Faltings height of \text{CM} abelian varieties in terms of Hilbert (and Siegel) modular forms. We construct an elliptic modular form involving the Faltings height of a \text{CM} abelian surface and arithmetic intersection numbers, and prove that the Colmez conjecture for \text{CM} abelian surfaces is equivalent to the cuspidality of this modular form.
