For a prime number p, we characterize the groups that may arise as torsion subgroups of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication defined over a number field of degree 2p. In particular, our work shows that a classification in the…

For an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ without complex multiplication, Lang and Trotter conjectured that the number of primes $p <X$ at which $E$ has a supersingular reduction is asymptotically equal to $c\sqrt{X}/\log X$, where $c>0$…

Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve, and denote by $N(p)$ the number of $\mathbb{F}_p$-points of the reduction modulo $p$ of $E$. A conjecture of Koblitz, refined by Zywina, states that the number of primes $p \leq X$ at which $N(p)$ is…

Let E_k denote the elliptic curve defined by y^2 = x(x^2 - k^2). We consider the curves with k = pl, p = l = 1 mod 8 primes, and show that the density of rank-0 curves among them is at least 1/2 by explicitly constructing nontrivial…

We formulate a problem called \emph{Generalized Root Extraction} in finite Abelian groups that have more than one generator. We then study this problem for the specific case of the torsion subgroups of elliptic curves. We give a necessary…

For a given elliptic curve $E$ over a finite local ring, we denote by $E^{\infty}$ its subgroup at infinity. Every point $P \in E^{\infty}$ can be described solely in terms of its $x$-coordinate $P_x$, which can be therefore used to…

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…

It is known, that for every elliptic curve over Q there exists a quadratic extension in which the rank does not go up. For a large class of elliptic curves, the same is known with the rank replaced by the 2-Selmer group. We show, however,…

We establish asymptotic lower bounds for the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with prescribed entanglement of division fields, ordered by naive height. Such elliptic curves are obtained as $1$-parameter families arising from…

Given a prime $p$, an elliptic curve $\E/\F_p$ over the finite field $\F_p$ of $p$ elements and a binary \lrs\ $\(u(n)\)_{n =1}^\infty$ of order~$r$, we study the distribution of the sequence of points $$ \sum_{j=0}^{r-1} u(n+j)P_j, \qquad…

An elliptic curve $E$ defined over a $p$-adic field $K$ with a $p$-isogeny $\phi:E\rightarrow E^\prime$ comes equipped with an invariant $\alpha_{\phi/K}$ that measures the valuation of the leading term of the formal group homomorphism…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this article, we study the variation of Iwasawa invariants among $p$-congruent elliptic curves over certain $p$-adic Lie extensions. We investigate both the classical Selmer group as well as the fine…

We compute equations for the families of elliptic curves 9-congruent to a given elliptic curve. We use these to find infinitely many non-trivial pairs of 9-congruent elliptic curves over Q, i.e. pairs of non-isogenous elliptic curves over Q…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $E/\mathbb{Q}$ an elliptic curves with complex multiplication by $\mathcal{O}_K$. Let $K_\infty/K$ be the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ and $K_n$ the intermediate layers. Under…

Let $p\ge5$ be a prime and $T$ a Kodaira type of the special fiber of an elliptic curve. We estimate the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb Q$ up to height $X$ with Kodaira type $T$ at $p$. This enables us find the proportion of…

Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve and $p \geq 3$ a prime. The modular curve $X_E^-(p)$ parametrizes elliptic curves with $p$-torsion modules anti-symplectically isomorphic to $E[p]$. We give a complete classification of when…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$ and with complex multiplication by $\mO_K$, the ring of integers in an imaginary quadratic field $K$. It is known that $E(\F_p)$ has a structure E(\F_p)\simeq \Z/d_p\Z \oplus \Z/e_p\Z. with…

For a given elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$, let $N_p(E)$ be the number of points on $E$ modulo $p$ for a prime of good reduction for $E$. Given integer $n$, let $G_k(E,n)$ be the number of $k$-tuples of $p_1<p_2<\ldots <p_k$ primes of good…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ and $\widetilde{E}_p$ denote the reduction of $E$ modulo a prime $p$ of good reduction for $E$. The divisibility of $|\widetilde{E}_{p}(\mathbb{F}_p)|$ by an integer $m\ge 2$ for a set…

The Cohen-Lenstra heuristic is a universal principle that assigns to each group a probability that tells how often this group should occur "in nature". The most important, but not the only, applications are sequences of class groups, which…
