Essential dimension of isogenies

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We give a lower bound for the essential dimension of isogenies of complex abelian varieties. The bound is sharp in many cases. In particular, the multiplication-by-m map is incompressible for every m ≥ 2, confirming a conjecture of Brosnan.
