A counterexample to the local–global principle of linear dependence for Abelian varieties
[Un contre-exemple au principe de la dépendance linéaire des variétés abéliennes]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 348 (2010) no. 1-2, pp. 9-10.

Soient k un corps de nombres, A une variété abélienne sur k, P un point de A(k) et X un sous-groupe de A(k). En 2002 Gajda et Kowalski ont demandé s'il est vrai que le point P appartient à X si et seulement si le point (Pmodp) appartient à (Xmodp) pour presque toute place finie p de k. Nous donnons une réponse négative à cette question.

Let A be an Abelian variety defined over a number field k. Let P be a point in A(k) and let X be a subgroup of A(k). Gajda and Kowalski asked in 2002 whether it is true that the point P belongs to X if and only if the point (Pmodp) belongs to (Xmodp) for all but finitely many primes p of k. We provide a counterexample.
