This implies that two abelian varieties over $\\mathbb{Q}$ with the same $L$-series are necessarily isogenous, but this is false over a general number field. Let $A$ and $A'$ be two abelian varieties, defined over number fields $K$ and $K'$ respectively. Our main result is that $A$ and $A'$ are isogenous after a suitable isomorphism between $K$ and $K'$ if and only if the Dirichlet character groups of $K$ and $K'$ are isomorphic and the $L$-series of $A$ and $A'$ twisted by the Dirichlet characters match.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-01-21T12:01:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G40", "11R37", "11R42", "14K02" ], "keywords": [ "abelian varieties", "faltingss isogeny theorem states", "number field agree", "general number field", "dirichlet character groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
