Let A be an abelian variety of dimension n defined over C whose endomorphism algebra contains an isomorphic image of a number field K of degree 2n. The main theorem of complex multiplication gives the behaviour of A under an automorphism of C over a certain field K'which is determined by the representation< J> of K on the tangent space of A. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the behaviour of A under an automorphism that is not the identity map on K'. To explain this problem in a different fashion, take any polarization 0 of A and let Mo be the field of moduli of the polarized variety (A, C). Then, by means of the main theorem, one can determine K'M0 as a class field over K\but one does not know how large or small Mo is. Such information can be supplied by the behaviour of A under an automorphism of general type. If A is one-dimensional, then K is imaginary quadratic and K'= K. In this case, Mo always has a real archimedean prime, and hence Mo and K are linearly disjoint over Q. This can easily be derived from the behaviour of A under the complex conjugation. In the higher-dimensional case, however, no such general answer seems possible. Indeed, we shall show that the behaviour of (. 4, C) and the size of Mo depend, to a great extent, on the isomorphism class of (A, C), whereas K'M0 is completely determined by {K, Q>) if End (J.) is the maximal order of K. Also, the Galoistheoretical structure of {K,< D) seems essential to the answers, if any, to our questions. We shall actually investigate in this paper, after some general preliminary considerations, the following three cases:(1) the Galois closure of K over Q has a dihedral group of order 4n as its Galois group;
