David R. Kohel Institut de Mathematiques de Luminy Lower dimensional CM constructions Algorithms for constructive complex multiplication of elliptic curves have seen research on various fronts, including: 1. Choice of a moduli space X, with low degree cover X -> Y having a rational parametrization P^1 -> Y. 2. Complex analytic, p-adic, and CRT algorithms for determining CM points. 3. Galois theoretic properties of these points based on geometric and class field theoretic considerations. 4. Construction of class polynomials, or ideals, over Q from CM points. We will discuss generalizations of these questions to Jacobian surfaces other low dimensional abelian varieties.
