Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be an elliptic curve whose mod $p$ Galois image is contained in the normaliser of a non-split Cartan. We classify the possible $p$-adic images of $E$ using tools from $p$-adic Hodge theory via a careful analysis of the…

Let $K$ be a number field, $n>4$ an integer, $f(x)$ an irreducible polynomial over $K$ of degree $n$, whose Galois group is either the full symmetric group $S_n$ or the alternating group $A_n$. Suppose $C:y^2=f(x)$ is the corresponding…

For an elliptic curve $E/\Q$, we determine the maximum number of twists $E^d/\Q$ it can have such that $E^d(\Q)_{tors}\supsetneq E(\Q)[2]$. We use these results to determine the number of distinct quadratic fields $K$ such that…

A fundamental problem in arithmetic geometry is to determine the image of the mod $N$ Galois representation for all elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and integers $N \geq 1$. For a given subgroup $G \le…

A conditional bound is given for the average analytic rank of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field. In particular, under the assumptions that all elliptic curves over a number field $K$ are modular and have $L$-functions which…

We give the complete list of possible torsion subgroups of elliptic curves with complex multiplication over number fields of degree 1-13. Additionally we describe the algorithm used to compute these torsion subgroups and its implementation.

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…

In this work, we study elliptic curves of the form $E_L: y^2 = x(x-1)(x-L)$, where $L^2-L+1 \in \left(\mathbb{Q}^{\times}\right)^2$ and $L \in \mathbb{Q} \setminus \{0,1\}$. We will show that for almost all quadratic extensions…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$. We say that a prime number $p$ is exceptional for $(E,K)$ if $E$ admits a $p$-isogeny defined over $K$. The so-called exceptional set of all such prime numbers is finite if and…

We study the Galois symbol map of the Milnor $K$-group attached to elliptic curves over a $p$-adic field. As by-products, we determine the structure of the Chow group for the product of elliptic curves over a $p$-adic field under some…

We consider the expansion of the real field by the group of rational points of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers. We prove a completeness result, followed by a quantifier elimination result. Moreover we show that open sets…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G = E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion subgroup. We study, for a given G, which possible groups G <= H could appear such that H=E(K)_tors, for [K:Q]=4 and H is one of the possible torsion…

We describe deterministic and probabilistic algorithms to determine whether or not a given monic irreducible polynomial H in Z[X] is a Hilbert class polynomial, and if so, which one. These algorithms can be used to determine whether a given…

Let $p$ be a prime and $K$ a number field of degree $p$. We count the number of elliptic curves, up to $\bar{K}$-isomorphism, having a prescribed property, where this property is either that the curve contains a fixed torsion group as a…

We solve the problem of counting elliptic curves with fixed j-invariant in projective space with tangency conditions. This is equivalent to couting rational nodal curves with condition on the node of the image. The solution is given in the…

In this article, we show that in each of four standard families of hyperelliptic curves, there is a density-$1$ subset of members with the property that their Jacobians have adelic Galois representation with image as large as possible. This…

We give explicit formulas for the number of distinct elliptic curves over a finite field, up to isomorphism, in the families of Legendre, Jacobi, Hessian and generalized Hessian curves.

Given an elliptic curve $E$ and a positive integer $N$, we consider the problem of counting the number of primes $p$ for which the reduction of $E$ modulo $p$ possesses exactly $N$ points over $\mathbb F_p$. On average (over a family of…

Let E be an elliptic curve with additive reduction over the p-adic numbers, and let G be the group of p-adic points on E that have good reduction. This paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions for G to contain non-trivial p-torsion.
