Geometry underlying a comparison of Dieudonné theories

Maybe these hypotheses aren't necessary, but for me $\mathbb G$ will be a smooth formal group of dimension 1 and finite height over a perfect field $k$. There are several presentations of the ...

Purity for abelian schemes up to $p$-isogenies

Let $S$ be a noetherian excellent regular scheme and $U\subset S$ an everywhere dense open of codimension $\geq 2$. For some fibered categories of geometric objects, it makes sense to ask whether the ...

Kernels and cokernels for morphisms of abelian schemes up to isogenies

For $S$ a noetherian scheme, let $\mathcal{A}(S)$ be the additive category of abelian schemes over $S$ and $\mathcal{A}_{\mathbb{Q}}(S)$ be the category of abelian schemes up to isogenies, i.e. ...

Failure of injectiveness of maps between cotangent spaces of abelian varieties

Let $p$ be a prime and $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb Q_p$ with ramification index $e$. Let $\mathcal O_K$ be the ring of integers of $K$ and $k$ its residue field and the unique maximal ideal. ...

Dual Abelian scheme (relative Picard functor) vs Ext sheaf

Let $A$ be an abelian scheme over some base scheme $S$. Let $A^\vee$ be the dual abelian scheme, defined as $\text{Pic}^0_{A/S}$ where $\text{Pic}_{A/S}(T)=\text{Pic}(A_T)/\text{Pic}(A)$. (maybe some ...

Lifting morphisms of $p$-divisible groups using Grothendieck-Messing theory

During my reading of Peter Scholze and Jared Weinstein's paper ``Moduli of $p$-divisible groups'' I found this assertion in the proof of Proposition 6.1.3. Consider the following situation. Let $k$ be ...

Extension of a multiple of a rational point to an integral point of a semiabelian scheme

Let $\cal A$ be a smooth commutative group scheme over $S$, where $S$ is the spectrum of a discrete valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and residue field $k$. Suppose that $A:={\cal A}_K$ is an ...

Jacobian fibration of an abelian fibration

Let $f \colon S \rightarrow C$ be a minimal elliptic surface and let $g \colon J \rightarrow C$ be its jacobian fibration. In this case, we know that the fibers of $g$ are better behaved that the ones ...

On representable abelian sheaves vs abelian sheaves

Let $S$ be a scheme, $(\text{Sch}/S)_{\rm Ét}$ a big étale site, and $A$ a representable (either in schemes or algebraic spaces over $S$) abelian sheaf on $(\text{Sch}/S)_{\rm Ét}$. Suppose there is a ...

How does the number of connected components of the Néron model change in a family of abelian varieties?

Given an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$, it is known that the component group of the Néron model of $E$ is cyclic of order $-v(j(E))$ when $E$ has split multiplicative reduction, and in all other ...

What is the pull-back of a polarization of abelian schemes over different bases?

The following came up when reading the definition of the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties in [1]. Let $\pi_1:A_1 \to S_1$ and $\pi_2: A_2 \to S_2$ be abelian schemes over $S_i$, ...

Examples of semi-abelian schemes over a curve

Let $C$ be a nice curve, i.e. $C$ is a smooth, projective, geometrically integral scheme of dimension $1$ over a field $k$. For example, (assuming the characteristic of $k$ is neither 2 or 3) an ...

Faltings' height theorem for isogenies over finite fields

For an Abelian scheme over a ring of integers in a number field, Faltings has a theorem that describes how the Faltings' height changes through an isogeny. There are multiple references for this ...

Level n-structure as defined by Mumford in GIT

In Mumford's GIT, the definition of level $n$ structure ($n \geq 2)$ is $2g$ sections $\{\sigma_1, \dots, \sigma_{2g}\} : S \rightarrow A$ such that two conditions hold: (i) For geometric points the ...
