Review text

Let \(K\) be an imaginary quadratic field with class number \(h\). In this paper the author characterizes \(h\)-dimensional CM abelian varieties over \(K\) which descend to abelian varieties over the rational number field \(\mathbb Q\) by their algebraic Hecke characters. If an abelian variety \(A\) over \(K\) has complex multiplication, then the dimension of \(A\) is \(h[H_g(\text{Im}\,\varepsilon: H_g]\) or \(2h[H_g(\text{Im}\,\varepsilon: H_g]\). Here \(H_g\) is the genus class field of \(K\) (Proposition 2). Hence these CM abelian varieties have minimal dimension \(h\) both over \(K\) and over \(\mathbb Q\). Under the conditions that \(\text{End}_{\mathbb Q}(A)\otimes\mathbb Q\) are maximal real subfields of \(\text{End}_K(A)\otimes\mathbb Q\) and some restrictions on the conductors of \(A\), such abelian varieties have been studied by \textit{T. Yang} [Math. Ann. 329, No. 1, 87--117 (2004; Zbl 1088.11048)]. In this note removing the above conditions, the author gives a general treatment of these abelian varieties. He gives a characterization of the associated characters of them (Theorem 1) and finally he explicitly determines such characters. (From the introduction).
