Points of finite order on an Abelian variety

In this paper it is shown that the image of the Galois group under an $l$-adic representation in the Tate module of an Abelian variety has an algebraic Lie algebra which contains the scalar matrices as a subalgebra (Serre's conjecture). This paper also proves the finiteness of the intersection of a subgroup of an Abelian variety all of whose elements have order equal to a power of a fixed number with a wide class of subvarieties.
