Let S be a subgroup of A(F) and let x be a point of A(F). Suppose that for almost all places v of F the reduction of x modulo v lies in the reduction of S modulo v. In this paper we prove that x must then lie in S + A(F)_tors. This provides a partial answer to a generalization (due to W. Gajda) of the support problem of Erdos.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-08-14T22:18:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G10", "14K15", "13F05" ], "keywords": [ "abelian variety", "mordell-weil groups", "kummer theory", "number field", "partial answer" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.4064/aa110-1-6", "journal": "Acta Arithmetica", "year": 2003, "volume": 110, "number": 1, "pages": 77 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003AcAri.110...77W" } } }
