Abstract

Let be an abelian variety over a -adic field and an algebraic infinite extension over . We consider the finiteness of the torsion part of the group of rational points under some assumptions. In 1975, Hideo Imai proved that such a group is finite if has good reduction and is the cyclotomic -extension of . In this paper, first we show a generalization of Imai’s result in the case where has good ordinary reduction. Next we give some finiteness results when is an elliptic curve and is the field generated by the -th power torsion of an elliptic curve.
