Torsion subgroups of elliptic curves over quintic and sextic number fields

Number Theory 2017-09-26 v3

Abstract

Let Φ(d)\Phi^\infty(d) denote the set of finite abelian groups that occur infinitely often as the torsion subgroup of an elliptic curve over a number field of degree dd. The sets Φ(d)\Phi^\infty(d) are known for d4d\le 4. In this article we determine Φ(5)\Phi^\infty(5) and Φ(6)\Phi^\infty(6).
