Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study certain family of elliptic curves {XH}H\{\mathscr{X}_H\}_H defined over a number field FF arising from hyperplane sections of some cubic surface X/F\mathscr{X}/F associated to a cyclic cubic extension K/FK/F. We show that each XH\mathscr{X}_H admits a 3-isogeny ϕ\phi over FF and the dual Selmer group S(ϕ^)(XH^/F)S^{(\hat{\phi})}(\hat{\mathscr{X}_H}/F) is bounded by a kind of unit/class groups attached to K/FK/F. This is proven via certain rational function on the elliptic curve XH\mathscr{X}_H with nice property. We also prove that the Shafarevich-Tate group \cyrX(XH^/\rat)[ϕ^]\text{\cyr X} (\hat{\mathscr{X}_H}/\rat)[\hat{\phi}] coincides with a class group of KK as a special case.
