Abstract

Let EE be an elliptic curve with jj-invariant 00 or 17281728 and let E~\widetilde{E} be a kthk^{th} twist of EE. We show that for any prime pp of good reduction of E~\widetilde{E}, a degree kk relative pp-class group and the root number of E~\widetilde{E} determines the dimension of the pp-Selmer group of E~\widetilde{E}. As a consequence, we construct families of large rank pp-class group. We also relate congruent number and cube sum problem with relative pp-class group.
