On weights of the $ l$-adic representation and arithmetic of Frobenius eigenvalues (Q4719686)

The author gives some new partial results towards the following conjecture of J. Tate proved recently by \textit{R. Pink} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 495, 187-237 (1998; Zbl 0920.14006)]. Let \(A\) be an abelian variety over a number field \(k\) and \(\rho_l\) be the \(l\)-adic representation of the Galois group in \(V_l = H_{et}^1(A\otimes \bar k,{\mathbb Q}_l)\). Then each simple factor \(g\) of the reductive Lie algebra Lie(Im\((\rho_l)\otimes \bar{{\mathbb Q}_l})\) is of classical type and each irreducible \(g\)-submodule of \(V_l\) is a miniscule representation. The author proves this under the following assumptions: \(A\) is absolutely simple, the center of End\((A\otimes \bar k))\) is equal to \({\mathbb Z}\), and the \({\mathbb Q}\)-division algebra End\(^0(A\otimes \bar k))\) splits at the prime \(l\). The author's proof does not use the theory of crystalline cohomology which was the main tool for Pink's proof. Another result of the paper concerns K3-surfaces \(S\) defined over a sufficiently large number field \(k\). Under the assumption that the Picard number of \(S\otimes_k{\mathbb C}\) is odd or the Hodge group is a semi-simple algebraic group over \({\mathbb Q}\), the author proves that the Dirichlet density of the set of non-archimedean points of \(k\) at which \(S\) has ordinary reduction is equal to 1.
