Description

    Robert Carls - University of Leiden

Let A be an abelian variety over a finite field. Liftable endomorphisms of A act on the deformation space. In the ordinary case there's a canonical way of lifting Frobenius. We will show, that the action of Frobenius has a unique fixpoint, the canonical lift. A proof will be given in terms of Barsotti-Tate groups using the Serre-Tate theorem. Drinfeld's proof of this theorem will be sketched (see [1]). It will be explained how to make the above action explicit for elliptic curves. In characterictic 2 one can describe the action by the AGM (arithmetic geometric mean) sequence.
