Tate and Weil classes on abelian varieties over finite fields

Abstract:

We discuss nontrivial multiplicative relations among eigenvalues of Frobenius endomorphisms of abelian varieties over finite fields. (The trivial relations are provided by the Riemann Hypothesis that was proven by A. Weil.) We classify all abelian varieties over finite fields of a certain dimension which admit the nontrivial relations and give an explicit construction of corresponding exotic Tate classes.
