On the reduction of points on abelian varieties and tori

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let R_1,..., R_n be points in G(K). Let l be a rational prime and let a_1,..., a_n be non-negative integers. Consider the set of primes p of K satisfying the following condition: the l-adic valuation of the order of (R_i mod p) equals a_i for every i=1,...,n. We show that this set has a natural density and we characterize the n-tuples a_1,..., a_n for which the density is positive. More generally, we study the l-part of the reduction of the points.

Two variants of the support problem for products of abelian varieties and tori

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let P and Q be K-rational points on G. Suppose that for all but finitely many primes p of K the order of (Q mod p) divides the order of (P mod p). Then there exist a K-endomorphism f of G and a non-zero integer c such that f(P)=cQ. Furthermore, we are able to prove the above result with weaker assumptions: instead of comparing the order of the points we only compare the radical of the order (radical support problem) or the l-adic valuation of the order for some fixed rational prime l (l-adic support problem).

On the problem of detecting linear dependence for products of abelian varieties and tori

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let R be a point in G(K) and let L be a finitely generated subgroup of G(K). Suppose that for all but finitely many primes p of K the point (R mod p) belongs to (L mod p). Does it follow that R belongs to L? We answer this question affirmatively in three cases: if L is cyclic; if L is a free left End_K G-submodule of G(K); if L has a set of generators (as a group) which is a basis of a free left End_K G-submodule of G(K). In general we prove that there exists an integer m (depending only on G, K and the rank of L) such that mR belongs to the left End_K G-submodule of G(K) generated by L.

Prescribing valuations of the order of a point in the reductions of abelian varieties and tori

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let R be a K-rational point on G of infinite order. Call n_R the number of connected components of the smallest algebraic K-subgroup of G to which R belongs. We prove that n_R is the greatest positive integer which divides the order of (R mod p) for all but finitely many primes p of K. Furthermore, let m>0 be a multiple of n_R and let S be a finite set of rational primes. Then there exists a positive Dirichlet density of primes p of K such that for every l in S the l-adic valuation of the order of (R mod p) equals v_l(m).
