ON THE TORSION ANOMALOUS CONJECTURE IN CM ABELIAN VARIETIES

Abstract

The torsion anomalous conjecture (TAC) states that a subvariety V of an abelian variety A has only finitely many maximal torsion anomalous subvarieties. In this work we prove, with an effective method, some cases of the TAC when the ambient variety A has CM, generalising our previous results in products of CM elliptic curves. When V is a curve, we give new results and we deduce some implications on the effective Mordell-Lang conjecture.
