An effective open image theorem for products of principally polarized abelian varieties

Publication date 21 December 2022

Abstract: Let

A = p r o d_{1 l e q i l e q n} A_{i}

be the product of principally polarized abelian varieties

A_{1}, l d o t s, A_{n}

that are defined over a number field

K

, of a common dimension

g

, and pairwise non-isogenous over

o v e r l i n e K

. We show that the image of the adelic Galois representation of

A

is open in an appropriate profinite group provided that the image of the adelic Galois representation of each

A_{i}

is open in

o p e r a t o r n a m e {G S p}_{2 g} (w i d e h a t m a t h b b Z)

. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we prove an explicit bound (in terms of standard invariants of

K

and each

A_{i}

) on the largest prime

e l l

for which the

e l l

-adic Galois representation of

A

is nonmaximal.
