Abstract

This paper classifies the finite groups that occur as inertia groups associated to abelian surfaces. These groups can be viewed as Galois groups for the smallest totally ramified extension over which an abelian surface over a local field acquires semistable reduction. The results extend earlier elliptic curves results of Serre and Kraus.
