Chidambaram on Galois representations (not) associated to abelian varieties over Q

Today’s post is about a new paper by my student Shiva. Suppose that \(A/\mathbf{Q}\) is a principally polarized abelian variety of dimension \(g\) and \(p\) is a prime. The Galois representation on the \(p\)-torsion points \(A[p]\) gives rise to a … Continue reading →
