Abstract

Consider an elliptic curve C\mathcal{C} with coefficients in K\mathbb{K} with [K:Q]<[\mathbb{K}:\mathbb{Q}]<\infty and δC(K)\delta \in \mathcal{C}(\mathbb{K}) a non torsion point. We consider an elliptic difference equation i=0lai(p)f(pi.δ)=0\sum_{i=0}^l a_i(p) f(p\oplus i.\delta)=0 with \oplus the elliptic addition law and aia_i polynomials on C\mathcal{C}. We present an algorithm to compute rational solutions, then an intermediary class we call pseudo-rational solutions, and finally hyperexponential solutions, which are functions ff such that f(pδ)/f(p)f(p\oplus \delta)/f(p) is rational over C\mathcal{C}.
