Let $E:y^2=x^3+ax+b$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We compute certain twists of the classical modular curves $X(8)$. Searching for rational points on these twists enables us to find non-trivial pairs of $8$-congruent…
We introduce and study arithmetic polygons. We show that these arithmetic polygons are connected to triples of square pyramidal numbers. For every odd $N\geq3$, we prove that there is at least one arithmetic polygon with $N$ sides. We also…
A rational triangle is a triangle with rational side lengths. We consider three different families of rational triangles having a fixed side and whose vertices are rational points in the plane. We display a one-to-one correspondence between…
This paper provides a non-standard analogue of Bezout's theorem. This is acheived by showing that, in all characteristics, the notion of Zariski multiplicity coincides with intersection multiplicity when we consider the full families of…
There are four characteristic circles for each triangle on a plane. All for are tangential to the three straight lines containing the triangles' three sides. Three are exterior circles, the fourth is the in-circle. When the triangle is…
In 1840 Jacob Steiner on Christian Rudolf's request proved that a triangle with two equal bisectors is isosceles. But what about changing the bisectors to cevians? Cevian is any line segment in a triangle with one endpoint on a vertex of…
Following work of Mazur-Tate and Satoh, we extend the definition of division polynomials to arbitrary isogenies of elliptic curves, including those whose kernels do not sum to the identity. In analogy to the classical case of division…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a $\mathbb{Q}$-isogeny class of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. The isogeny graph associated to $\mathcal{E}$ is a graph which has a vertex for each elliptic curve in the $\mathbb{Q}$-isogeny class…
A superspecial curve is a (non-singular) curve over a field of positive characteristic whose Jacobian variety is isomorphic to a product of supersingular elliptic curves over the algebraic closure. It is known that for given genus and…
We give a complete investigation of Morley's trisector theorem. If the intersections of the half lines starting from the adjacent vertices of a triangle form an equilateral triangle for an arbitrary triangle, then the half lines are the…
Some constructions and bounds on the sizes of semiovals contained in the Hermitian curve are given. A construction of an infinite family of 2-blocking sets of the Hermitian curve is also presented.
We prove that a pair of continuous disjoint periodic curves in $\mathbb{C}$ inscribes an isosceles trapezoid with any similarity type. The case of smooth curves can be identified with a Lagrangian intersection problem for a pair of…
If we label the vertices of a triangle with 1, 2 and 4, and the orthocentre with 7, then any of the four numbers 1, 2, 4, 7 is the nim-sum of the other three and is their orthocentre. Regard the triangle as an orthocentric quadrangle.…
Isogenies, the mappings of elliptic curves, have become a useful tool in cryptology. These mathematical objects have been proposed for use in computing pairings, constructing hash functions and random number generators, and analyzing the…
Answering a question posed by Joseph Malkevitch, we prove that there exists a polyhedral graph, with triangular faces, such that every realization of it as the graph of a convex polyhedron includes at least one face that is a scalene…
A rational triangle is a triangle with sides of rational lengths. In this short note, we prove that there exists a unique pair of a rational right triangle and a rational isosceles triangle which have the same perimeter and the same area.…
We define hyperbolic Heron triangles (hyperbolic triangles with "rational" side-lengths and area) and parametrize them in two ways as rational points of certain elliptic curves. We show that there are infinitely many hyperbolic Heron…
Generic spherical quadrilaterals are classified up to isometry. Condition of genericity consists in the requirement that the images of the sides under the developing map belong to four distinct circles which have no triple intersections.…
In this paper, we construct an infinite family of elliptic curves whose rank is exactly two and the torsion subgroup is a cyclic group of order two or three, under the parity conjecture.
It is proved that the rank of an elliptic curve is one less the arithmetic complexity of the corresponding non-commutative torus. As an illustration, we consider a family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.
