AbstractWe prove that under any projective embedding of an abelian variety A of dimension g, a complete set of addition laws has cardinality at least g+1, generalizing a result of Bosma and Lenstra for the Weierstrass model of an elliptic curve in ℙ2. In contrast, we prove, moreover, that if k is any field with infinite absolute Galois group, then there exists for every abelian variety A/k a projective embedding and an addition law defined for every pair of k-rational points. For an abelian variety of dimension 1 or 2, we show that this embedding can be the classical Weierstrass model or the embedding in ℙ15, respectively, up to a finite number of counterexamples for ∣k∣≤5 .

AbstractMotivated by the theory of complex multiplication of abelian varieties, in this paper we study the conformality classes of flat tori in $${\mathbb {R}}^{n}$$ R n and investigate criteria to determine whether a n-dimensional flat torus has non trivial (i.e. bigger than $${\mathbb {Z}}^{*}={\mathbb {Z}}{\setminus }\{0\}$$ Z ∗ = Z \ { 0 } ) semigroup of conformal endomorphisms (the analogs of isogenies for abelian varieties). We then exhibit several geometric constructions of tori with this property and study the class of conformally equivalent lattices in order to describe the moduli space of the corresponding tori.
