Among other things, we introduce certain new natural objects `discrete Selmer groups' and `discrete Shafarevich-Tate groups', and prove that they are finitely generated $\\Bbb Z$-modules. Further, we prove that in the isotrivial case, the discrete Shafarevich-Tate group vanishes and the discrete Selmer group coincides with the Mordell-Weil group. One of the key ingredients to prove these results is a new specialisation theorem \\`a la N\\'eron for first Galois cohomology groups, of the ($l$-adic) Tate module of abelian varieties which generalises N\\'eron's specialisation theorem for rational points of abelian varieties.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-12-02T16:54:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "abelian varieties", "arithmetic", "generalises nerons specialisation theorem", "discrete selmer group coincides", "first galois cohomology groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151200773S" } } }
