REDUCTIONS OF POINTS ON ALGEBRAIC GROUPS, II
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 July 2020
Abstract
Let A be the product of an abelian variety and a torus over a number field K, and let $$m \ge 2$$ be a square-free integer. If $\alpha \in A(K)$ is a point of infinite order, we consider the set of primes $\mathfrak p$ of K such that the reduction $(\alpha \bmod \mathfrak p)$ is well defined and has order coprime to m. This set admits a natural density, which we are able to express as a finite sum of products of $\ell$ -adic integrals, where $\ell$ varies in the set of prime divisors of m. We deduce that the density is a rational number, whose denominator is bounded (up to powers of m) in a very strong sense. This extends the results of the paper Reductions of points on algebraic groups by Davide Lombardo and the second author, where the case m prime is established.
