Let A=E_1xE_2 be be the product of two elliptic curves over QQ, both having a rational five torsion point P_i. Set B=A/<(P_1,P_2)>. In this paper we give an algorithm to decide whether the Tate-Shafarevich group of the abelian surface B has…

Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group $G$, let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over $F$, and let ${\cyr W}(A_{^{/ K}})$ and ${\cyr W}(A_{^{/ F}})$ denote, respectively, the Tate-Shafarevich groups of…

Let $p\ge 5$ be a prime number and $E/\mathbf{Q}$ an elliptic curve with good supersingular reduction at $p$. Under the generalized Heegner hypothesis, we investigate the $p$-primary subgroups of the Tate--Shafarevich groups of $E$ over…

For a smooth and geometrically irreducible variety X over a field k, the quotient of the absolute Galois group G_{k(X)} by the commutator subgroup of G_{\bar k(X)} projects onto G_k. We investigate the sections of this projection. We show…

Cremona, Mazur, and others have studied what they call visibility of elements of Shafarevich-Tate groups of elliptic curves. The analogue for an abelian number field $K$ is capitulation of ideal classes of $K$ in the minimal cyclotomic…

Let $\ell$ be an odd prime. We study the visibility theorem for certain elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with additive reduction at $\ell$, and deduce the existence of nontrivial $\ell$-torsion in $\Sha(E^D/\mathbb{Q})$ for suitable…

For each prime $p$, we show that there exist geometrically simple abelian varieties $A/\mathbb Q$ with non-trivial $p$-torsion in their Tate-Shafarevich groups. Specifically, for any prime $N\equiv 1 \pmod{p}$, let $A_f$ be an optimal…

In this paper, we classify irreducible representations of affine group superschemes over fields $F$ of characteristic not two in terms of those over a separable closure $F^{\mathrm{sep}}$ and their Galois twists. We also compute the…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the rational field $\mathbf{Q}$. Let $K$ be a quadratic extension over $\mathbf{Q}$. Let $\mathrm{ST}(E/K)$ dente the Shafarevich-Tate group of $E$ over $K$. We show that (under mild conditions on $E$) for…

Let A be an abelian surface over a fixed number field. If A is principally polarised, then it is known that the order of the Tate-Shafarevich group of A must, if finite, be a square or twice a square. The situation for A not principally…

This is an updated version of ANT-0166. Generalizing results of Stroeker and Top we show that the 2-ranks of the Tate-Shafarevich groups of the elliptic curves $y^2 = (x+k)(x^2+k^2)$ can become arbitrarily large. We also present a…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ be the maximal abelian extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In this article we classify the groups that can arise as $E(\mathbb{Q}^{ab})_{\text{tors}}$ up to…

Given a field with a set of discrete valuations $V$, we show how the genus of a division algebra over the field is related to the genus of the residue algebras at various valuations in $V$ and the ramification data. When the division…

The paper formulates a precise relationship between the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve $E$ over ${\mathbb Q}$ with a quotient of the classgroup of ${\mathbb Q}(E[p])$ on which $Gal({\mathbb Q}(E[p]/{\mathbb Q}) = GL_2({\mathbb…

Given a smooth geometrically connected curve $C$ over a field $k$ and a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ of finite type over the function field $K$ of $C$ we study the Tate--Shafarevich groups given by elements of $H^1(K,G)$ locally…

We show that the number of copies of ${\Bbb Q}_p/{\Bbb Z}_p$ in the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve $E$ over ${\Bbb Q}$ with complex multipication, is at most $2p - g$, where $g$ is the rank of $E({\Bbb Q})$, and for all…

We study real elliptic surfaces and trigonal curves (over a base of an arbitrary genus) and their equivariant deformations. We calculate the real Tate-Shafarevich group and reduce the deformation classification to the combinatorics of a…

In this paper we generalize an argument of Neukirch from birational anabelian geometry to the case of arithmetic curves. In contrast to the function field case, it seems to be more complicate to describe the position of decomposition groups…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ where $p$ splits completely. Suppose that $E$ has good reduction at all primes above $p$. Generalizing previous works of Kobayashi and Sprung, we define multiply signed Selmer…
