We prove useful necessary and sufficient conditions for an elliptic curve over a number field to admit a surjective adelic Galois representation. Using these conditions, we compute an example of a number field K and an elliptic curve E/K…
By the theory of elliptic curves, we study the nontrivial rational parametric solutions and rational solutions of the Diophantine equations $z^2=f(x)^2 \pm f(y)^2$ for some simple Laurent polynomials $f$.
This note gives explicit equations for the elliptic curves (in characteristic not 2 or 3) with mod 2 representation isomorphic to that of a given one.
We determine all modular curves $X_0(N)$ with infinitely many quartic points. To do this, we define a pairing that induces a quadratic form representing all possible degrees of a rational morphism from $X_0(N)$ to a positive rank elliptic…
In this paper we study the affine geometric structure of the graph of a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{R} [x,y]$. We provide certain criteria to determine when the parabolic curve is compact and when the unbounded component of its complement is…
We study the elliptic curve $E_a: (ax+1)y^2+(ax+1)(x-1)y+x^2-x=0$, which we call the geometric normal form of an elliptic curve. We show that any elliptic curve whose $j$-invariant is real is isomorphic to a curve $E_a$ in geometric normal…
This article considers the family of elliptic curves given by $E_{p}: y^2=x^3-5px$ and certain conditions on an odd prime $p$. More specifically, we have shown that if $p \equiv 7, 23 \pmod {40}$, then the rank of $E_{p}$ is zero for both $…
A formalism is given to count integer and rational solutions to polynomial equations with rational coefficients. These polynomials $P(x)$ are parameterized by three integers, labeling an elliptic curve. The counting of the rational…
We give explicit formulas for the number of points on reductions of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by any imaginary quadratic field. We also find models for CM $\mathbf{Q}$-curves in certain cases. This generalizes earlier…
In characteristic $p>0$ and for $q$ a power of $p$, we compute the number of nonplanar rational curves of arbitrary degrees on a smooth Hermitian surface of degree $q+1$ under the assumption that the curves have a parametrization given by…
Given two elliptic curves defined over a number field K, not both with j-invariant zero, we show that there are infinitely many $D\in K^\times$ with pairwise distinct image in $ K^\times/{K^\times}^2 $, such that the quadratic twist of both…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. Modular forms for GL(2) over $K$ are known as Bianchi modular forms. Standard modularity conjectures assert that every weight 2 rational Bianchi newform has either an associated elliptic curve over…
We consider a rational elliptic surface with a relatively minimal fibration. We compute the number of integral sections in the above rational elliptic surface. As an application, we obtain an estimate of polynomial solutions of some…
We prove that, when all elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ are ordered by naive height, a positive proportion have both algebraic and analytic rank one. It follows that the average rank and the average analytic rank of elliptic curves are…
Let $A,B$ be nonzero rational numbers. Consider the elliptic curve $E_{A,B}/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ with Weierstrass equation $y^2=x^3+At^6+B$. An algorithm to determine $\mathrm{rank } E_{A,B}(\mathbb{Q}(t))$ as a function of $(A,B)$ was presented…
We look for elliptic curves featuring rational points whose coordinates form two arithmetic progressions, one for each coordinate. A constructive method for creating such curves is shown, for lengths up to 5.
We produce explicit elliptic curves over \Bbb F_p(t) whose Mordell-Weil groups have arbitrarily large rank. Our method is to prove the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer for these curves (or rather the Tate conjecture for related…
We give an explicit description of the F_{q^i}-rational points on the Fermat curve u^{q-1}+v^{q-1}+w^{q-1}=0 for each i=1,2,3. As a consequence, we observe that for any such point (u,v,w), the product uvw is a cube in F_{q^i}. We also…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve given by the equation $y^2=f(x)$, where $f\in\Z[x]$ and $f$ hasn't multiple roots. We say that points $P_{i}=(x_{i}, y_{i})\in C(\Q)$ for $i=1,2,..., n$ are in arithmetic progression if the numbers $x_{i}$…
We provide a complete, explicit description of the inertial Weil-Deligne types arising from elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}_{p^{2}}$ for p prime
