Commutative Algebraic Groups up to Isogeny
نویسندگان
چکیده
Consider the abelian category Ck of commutative group schemes of finite type over a field k. By results of Serre and Oort, Ck has homological dimension 1 (resp. 2) if k is algebraically closed of characteristic 0 (resp. positive). In this article, we explore the abelian category of commutative algebraic groups up to isogeny, defined as the quotient of Ck by the full subcategory Fk of finite k-group schemes. We show that Ck/Fk has homological dimension 1, and we determine its projective or injective objects. We also obtain structure results for Ck/Fk, which take a simpler form in positive characteristics. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 14K02, 14L15, 18E35, 20G07.

Groups of Points on Abelian Varieties over Finite Fields
Fix an isogeny class of abelian varieties with commutative endomorphism algebra over a finite field. This isogeny class is determined by a Weil polynomial fA without multiple roots. We give a classification of groups of k-rational points on varieties from this class in terms of Newton polygons of fA(1− t).

متن کاملAN INTEGRAL DEPENDENCE IN MODULES OVER COMMUTATIVE RINGS
In this paper, we give a generalization of the integral dependence from rings to modules. We study the stability of the integral closure with respect to various module theoretic constructions. Moreover, we introduce the notion of integral extension of a module and prove the Lying over, Going up and Going down theorems for modules.
متن کاملOn the Relative Theory of Tamagawa Numbers
This note is an outline of some of the author's recent work on the relative theory of Tamagawa numbers of semisimple algebraic groups. The details and applications will be published elsewhere. Let k be an algebraic number field of finite degree over Q, let G be a connected semisimple algebraic group defined over k. G admits one and only one simply connected covering (G, ir) defined over k (exce...
متن کاملPublic-Key Cryptosystem Based on Isogenies
A new general mathematical problem, suitable for publickey cryptosystems, is proposed: morphism computation in a category of Abelian groups. In connection with elliptic curves over finite fields, the problem becomes the following: compute an isogeny (an algebraic homomorphism) between the elliptic curves given. The problem seems to be hard for solving with a quantum computer. ElGamal public-key...
