Abstract
Fix a positive integer and a finite field . We study the joint distribution of the rank of , the -Selmer group of , and the -torsion in the Tate-Shafarevich group of as varies over elliptic curves of fixed height over . We compute this joint distribution in the large limit. We also show that the "large , then large height" limit of this distribution agrees with the one predicted by Bhargava-Kane-Lenstra-Poonen-Rains.
