Abstract

In \cite{Yin26}, the author constructed some CM points on the elliptic curves Epi:y2=x3+p2i4E_{p^i}:y^2=x^3+\frac{p^{2i}}{4} for primes p4,7mod9p\equiv 4,7\mod 9 and i=1,2i=1,2, which give rational points on the curves x3+y3=pix^3+y^3=p^i. This solves the 4,74,7 cases of Sylvester's conjecture. In this paper, we prove the explicit Gross-Zagier formula relating the height of our CM points and the derivative of the LL-functions of EpiE_{p^i}.
