Status of Grothendieck's conjecture on homomorphisms of abelian schemes
In [1] Grothendieck posits the following:
Conjecture. Let $S$ be a reduced connected scheme, locally of finite type over Spec($\mathbf{Z}$) or a field $k$, $A$ and $B$ two abelian schemes over $S$, $...

every abelian scheme quotient of a Picard scheme?
Is every abelian scheme $\mathcal{A}/X$ under suitable conditions on $X$ a quotient of a Picard scheme of a curve $\mathcal{C}/X$? I need it for $X/\mathbf{F}_q$ smooth projective.

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 ...

What are the higher $\mathrm{Ext}^i(A,\mathbf{G}_m)$'s, where $A$ is an abelian scheme?
Let $S$ be a base scheme, let $A/S$ be an abelian scheme, and let $\mathbf{G}_m/S$ be the multiplicative group; consider $A$ and $\mathbf{G}_m$ as objects in the abelian category of sheaves of abelian ...

Mordell-Weil group of the universal abelian scheme
Let $n>2$ and let $k$ be either $\bf Q$ or a finite field whose characteristic is prime to $n$. Let $A_{g,n}$ be the moduli scheme, which represents the functor, which with every $k$-scheme $S$

Lifting a splitting of an Abelian variety to characteristic 0
Let $R$ be the ring of integers in a (complete) algebraic closure of $\mathbb Q_p$ with maximal ideal $\mathfrak p$. Suppose I have an Abelian surface $\mathcal A/R$ such that over every $R/\mathfrak ...

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. ...

finite flat commutative group schemes arising from Abelian varieties
How are the finite flat group schemes $\mathcal{A}[\ell^n]$ arising from an Abelian scheme $\mathcal{A}/S$ singled out among other finite flat commutative group schemes of exponent $\ell^n$?

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. ...

étale cohomology with values in an abelian scheme is torsion?
Let $A/X$ be an abelian scheme. Is $H^n(X,A)$ torsion for $n > 0$?
Perhaps this can be proved analogously as Proposition IV.2.7 of Milne's Étale cohomology (where it is proved that the ...

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 ...

A silly question: is the number of points on a Jacobian (of a curve, over a finite field) known?
In a cryptography book I read that people does not known how to compute the number of points on a Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve $C$ over a finite field $F_q$? Is this true? It seems easy to ...

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 ...
