Division polynomials associated to an elliptic curve $E/K$ are polynomials $\phi_n, \psi_n^2$ that arise from the sequence of points $\{nP\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ on this curve. If one wishes to study $\mathbb{Z}$--linear combination of…
In literature, there are two different definitions of elliptic divisibility sequences. The first one says that a sequence of integers $\{h_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ is an elliptic divisibility sequence if it verifies the recurrence relation…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$, $E/K$ be an elliptic curve, and $\phi:A\to E^m$ be an isogeny defined over $K$. Let $P\in A(K)$ be such that $\phi(P)=(Q_1,\dots, Q_m)$ with $\text{Rank}_\mathbb{Z}(\langle…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ described by $y^2= x^3+ Kx+ L$ where $K, L \in \mathbb{Q}$. A set of rational points $(x_i,y_i) \in E(\mathbb{Q})$ for $i=1, 2, \cdots, k$, is said to be a sequence of consecutive cubes on $E$…
We give a generalization of a theorem of Silverman and Stephens regarding the signs in an elliptic divisibility sequence to the case of an elliptic net. We also describe applications of this theorem in the study of the distribution of the…
Given a local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ and an elliptic curve $E(R/\mathfrak{m})$, we define elliptic loops as the points of $\mathbb{P}^2(R)$ projecting to $E$ under the canonical modulo-$\mathfrak{m}$ reduction, endowed with an operation…
We define elliptic sequences over a commutative ring as sequences indexed by the (positive) integers satisfying a 4-parameter, highly symmetric family of homogeneous quartic relations among terms which we call elliptic relations. We…
For an elliptic curve $E$ over a finite field we define the point sequence $(P_n)$ recursively by $P_n=\vartheta (P_{n-1})=\vartheta ^n(P_0)$ with an endomorphism $\vartheta \in\mathrm{End}(E)$ and with some initial point $P_0$ on $E$. We…
For an elliptic curve $E$ defined over the field $\mathbb{C}$ of complex numbers, we classify all translates of elliptic curves in $E^3$ such that the $x$-coordinates satisfy a linear equation. This classification enables us to establish a…
Major controversy surrounds the use of Elliptic Curves in finite fields as Random Number Generators. There is little information however concerning the "randomness" of different procedures on Elliptic Curves defined over fields of…
Given an elliptic curve $E$ and a point $P$ in $E(\mathbb{R})$, we investigate the distribution of the points $nP$ as $n$ varies over the integers, giving bounds on the $x$ and $y$ coordinates of $nP$ and determining the natural density of…
Let $C$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ by the equation $y^2=x^3+Ax+B$ where $A,B\in\mathbb Q$. A sequence of rational points $(x_i,y_i)\in C(\mathbb Q),\,i=1,2,\ldots,$ is said to form a sequence of consecutive squares on $C$…
Let E/k(T) be an elliptic curve defined over a rational function field of characteristic zero. Fix a Weierstrass equation for E. For points R in E(k(T)), write x_R=A_R/D_R^2 with relatively prime polynomials A_R(T) and D_R(T) in k[T]. The…
Following work of Mazur-Tate and Satoh, we extend the definition of division polynomials to arbitrary isogenies of elliptic curves, including those whose kernels do not sum to the identity. In analogy to the classical case of division…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over the rationals and in minimal Weierstrass form, and let $P=(x_1/z_1^2,y_1/z_1^3)$ be a rational point of infinite order on $E$, where $x_1,y_1,z_1$ are coprime integers. We show that the integer…
Elliptic divisibility sequences (EDSs) are generalizations of a class of integer divisibility sequences called Lucas sequences. There has been much interest in cases where the terms of Lucas sequences are squares or cubes. In this work,…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field, and let $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$ be an order in $K$ of conductor $f\geq 1$. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with CM by $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$, such that $E$ is defined by a model over $\mathbb{Q}(j_{K,f})$,…
We classify elliptic curves over the rationals whose N\'eron model over the integers is semi-abelian, with good reduction at p=2, and whose Mordell--Weil group contains an element of order two that stays non-trivial at p=2. Furthermore, we…
For a given elliptic curve, its associated $L$-function evaluated at $1$ is closely related to its real period. In this article, we generalize this principle to a rational curve. We count the rational points over all finite fields and use…
Let K be a finite field. We know that a half of elements of K* is a square. So it is natural to ask how many of them appear as x-coordinate of points on an elliptic curve over K. We consider a specific class of elliptic curves over finite…
