Abstract

In a recent paper Moshe Jarden (Diamonds in torsion of Abelian varieties, J. Inst. Math. Jussieu9(3) (2010), 477–480) proposed a conjecture, later named the Kuykian conjecture, which states that if $A$ is an Abelian variety defined over a Hilbertian field $K$, then every intermediate field of $K({A}_{\mathrm{tor} } )/ K$ is Hilbertian. We prove that the conjecture holds for Galois extensions of $K$ in $K({A}_{\mathrm{tor} } )$.
