In this paper, we give explicit equations for homogeneous spaces corresponding to a rational isogeny of degree $3$. An explicit set of elliptic curves with elements of order $3$ in their Tate-Shafarevich group is constructed. Combining this…
Let S be a closed oriented surface of genus g > 1, and let T denote its Torelli group. First, given a set E of homotopically nontrivial, pairwise disjoint, pairwise nonisotopic simple closed curves on S, we determine precisely when a…
Given an elliptic curve E/Q and a prime p at which E has good reduction, let e_p be the exponent of the group E_p(F_p) of F_p-rational points on the reduction of E modulo p. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) for the Dedekind…
Let l be a prime number and let E and E' be l-isogenous elliptic curves defined over Q. In this paper we determine the proportion of primes p for which E(F_p) is isomorphic to E'(F_p). Our techniques are based on those developed in…
We prove quantitative upper bounds for the number of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve $E/\Fp_q(C)$ over a function field over a finite field that have rank $\geq 2$, and for their average rank. The main tools are constructions and…
A recent paper of Shekhar compares the ranks of elliptic curves $E_1$ and $E_2$ for which there is an isomorphism $E_1[p] \simeq E_2[p]$ as $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar{\mathbf{Q}}/\mathbf{Q})$-modules, where $p$ is a prime of good ordinary reduction…
We call a pair of distinct prime powers $(q_1,q_2) = (p_1^{a_1},p_2^{a_2})$ a Hasse pair if $|\sqrt{q_1}-\sqrt{q_2}| \leq 1$. For such pairs, we study the relation between the set $\mathcal{E}_1$ of isomorphism classes of elliptic curves…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $N$ be a positive integer. Now, $M_E(N)$ counts the number of primes $p$ such that the group $E_p(\mathbb{F}_p)$ is of order $N$. In an earlier joint work with Balasubramanian,…
Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p\geq 3$ be a prime. We prove the $p$-converse theorems for elliptic curves of potentially good ordinary reduction at Eisenstein primes (i.e., such that the residual representation $E[p]$ is…
Let $\E$ be an ordinary elliptic curve over a finite field $\F_{q}$ of $q$ elements and $x(Q)$ denote the $x$-coordinate of a point $Q = (x(Q),y(Q))$ on $\E$. Given an $\F_q$-rational point $P$ of order $T$, we show that for any subsets…
It is well-known that if $E$ is an elliptic curve over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$, then $E(\mathbb{F}_p)\simeq\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/mk\mathbb{Z}$ for some positive integers $m, k$. Let $S(M,K)$ denote the set of pairs…
For any number field K with a complex place, we present an infinite family of elliptic curves defined over K such that $dim \mathbb{F}_2 Sel_2(E^F/K) \ge dim \mathbb{F}_2 E^F(K)[2] + r_2$ for every quadratic twist E^F of every curve E in…
We prove that there exist infinitely many elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ with $j$-invariant $1728$ and rank exactly $2$ which are not obtained by base change from $\mathbb{Q}$. The rank of each such curve is determined via 2-isogeny…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a smooth, projective, genus $g\geq 2$ curve, defined over $\mathbb{C}$. Then $\mathcal{C}$ has \emph{many automorphisms} if its corresponding moduli point $p \in \mathcal{M}_g$ has a neighborhood $U$ in the complex…
There are 26 possibilities for the torsion group of elliptic curves defined over quadratic number fields. We present examples of high rank elliptic curves with given torsion group which give the current records for most of the torsion…
We study the low-lying zeros of various interesting families of elliptic curve L-functions. One application is an upper bound on the average analytic rank of the family of all elliptic curves. The upper bound obtained is less than two,…
We express all the newforms of weight $2$ and levels $30$, $33$, $35$, $38$, $40$, $42$, $44$, $45$ as linear combinations of eta quotients and Eisenstein series, and list their corresponding strong Weil curves. Let $p$ denote a prime and…
Let $C_\ell/\mathbb Q$ denote the curve with affine model $y^\ell=x(x^\ell-1)$, where $\ell\geq 3$ is prime. In this paper we study the limiting distributions of the normalized $L$-polynomials of the curves by computing their Sato-Tate…

For a given group $G$ and an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a number field $K$, I discuss the problem of finding $G$-extensions of $K$ over which $E$ gains rank. I prove the following theorem, extending a result of Fearnley, Kisilevsky,…
