Abstract: We consider the distribution of p-power group schemes among the torsion of abelian varieties over finite fields of characteristic p, as follows. Fix natural numbers g and n, and let $xi$ be a non-supersingular principally quasipolarized Barsotti-Tate group of level n. We classify the F_q-rational forms $x{i}^{a}lpha$ of $xi$. Among all principally polarized abelian varieties X/F_q of dimension g with p^n-torsion geometrically isomorphic to xi, we compute the frequency with which X[p^n] is isomorphic to $x{i}^{a}lpha$. The error in our estimate is bounded by $D/sqrtq$ where D depends on g, n and p, but not on $xi$.
