The list of all groups that can appear as torsion subgroups of elliptic curves over number fields of degree $d$, $d=4,5,6$, is not completely determined. However, the list of groups $\Phi^{\infty}(d)$, $d=4,5,6$, that can be realized as…

We consider the primes which divide the denominator of the x-coordinate of a sequence of rational points on an elliptic curve. It is expected that for every sufficiently large value of the index, each term should be divisible by a primitive…

Given an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with torsion subgroup $G = E(\mathbb{Q})_{\rm tors}$ we study what groups (up to isomorphism) can occur as the torsion subgroup of $E$ base-extended to $K$, a degree 6 extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve, defined over a quartic extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$, with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. In this paper, we classify the possible torsion subgroup structures $E(K)_{\text{tors}}$.

This paper focuses on the proof of Serge Lang's Heights Conjecture in a form that is completely effective. As a complementary result the author provides a new proof of Mazur-Merel theorem about a bound for the torsion of elliptic curves in…

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…

For each prime number $\ell$ and for each imaginary quadratic order of class number one or two, we determine all the possible $\ell$-adic Galois representations that occur for any elliptic curve with complex multiplication by such an order…

Let $m$ be a positive integer and let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with the property that $m\mid#E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ for a density $1$ set of primes $p$. Building upon work of Katz and Harron-Snowden, we study the probability…

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…

We give an algorithm to explicitly determine all elements of the $q$-torsion (for $q$ an odd prime) of the Brauer group of an elliptic curve over any base field of characteristic different from $q$, containing a primitive $q$-th root of…

There is a modular curve X'(6) of level 6 defined over Q whose Q-rational points correspond to j-invariants of elliptic curves E over Q for which Q(E[2]) is a subfield of Q(E[3]). In this note we characterize the j-invariants of elliptic…

Let $p$ and $q$ be distinct primes. Consider the Shimura curve $\mathcal{X}$ associated to the indefinite quaternion algebra of discriminant $pq$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $J$ be the Jacobian variety of $\mathcal{X}$, which is an abelian…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p \in \{5,7,11 \}$ be a prime. We determine the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p}))_{tors}$. Additionally, we determine all the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{16}))_{tors}$ and…

Let $\{nP+Q\}_{n\geq0}$ be a sequence of points on an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$. In this paper, we study the denominators of the $x$-coordinates of this sequence. We prove that, if $Q$ is a torsion point of prime order,…

The blow-up of the anticanonical base point on a del Pezzo surface $S$ of degree 1 gives rise to a rational elliptic surface $\mathscr{E}$ with only irreducible fibers. The sections of minimal height of $\mathscr{E}$ are in correspondence…

We describe methods to determine all the possible torsion groups of an elliptic curve that actually appear over a fixed quadratic field. We use these methods to find, for each group that can appear over a quadratic field, the field with the…

We provide an explicit and algorithmic version of a theorem of Momose classifying isogenies of prime degree of elliptic curves over number fields, which we implement in Sage and PARI/GP. Combining this algorithm with recent work of…

We prove upper bounds for the number of rational points on non-singular cubic curves defined over the rationals. The bounds are uniform in the curve and involve the rank of the corresponding Jacobian. The method used in the proof is a…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G=E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion group. In a previous paper, the authors studied, for a given G, which possible groups G\leq H could appear such that H=E(K)_tors, for [K:Q]=2. In the…

Let $E$ be a CM elliptic curve over $\Bbb{Q}$. We refine the work of Cojocaru on the asymptotic formulae for the number of primes $p\le x$ for which the reduction modulo $p$ of $E$ is of square-free order. Also, we derive an unconditional…
