Abstract
We determine the precise number of isomorphism classes of elliptic curves over with . The key idea is to obtain the exact unweighted number of rational points on the classifying stacks , and , where and denote the dicyclic groups of orders 12 and 24, respectively, and denotes the non-reduced group scheme of order 2. This computation, inspired by the classical work of [de Jong] and performed via motivic height zeta functions of height moduli spaces constructed in [Bejleri-Park-Satriano], establishes a complete determination of the total number of isomorphism classes of rational points on over any rational function field with perfect residue field .
