We study the vanishing of Massey products of order at least $3$ for absolutely irreducible smooth projective curves over a perfect field with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}/\ell$. We mainly focus on elliptic curves, for which we obtain a…
We prove, under some mild hypothesis, that an \'etale cover of curves defined over a number field has infinitely many specializations into an everywhere unramified extension of number fields. This constitutes an "absolute" version of the…
In this note we define the notion of Tate-Shafarevich group and Selmer group of the Chow group of an abelian variety defined over a number field. In this context we give positive answer to the question of Colliot-Th\'{e}l\`{e}ne that the…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $G=\langle\sigma_1, \dots, \sigma_n\rangle$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/ \mathbb{Q})$. Larsen's conjecture claims that the rank of the…
An isogeny class of elliptic curves over a finite field is determined by a quadratic Weil polynomial. Gekeler has given a product formula, in terms of congruence considerations involving that polynomial, for the size of such an isogeny…
Recently, D. Choi obtained a description of the coefficients of the infinite product expansions of meromorphic modular forms over $\Gamma_0(N)$. Using this result, we provide some bounds on these infinite product coefficients for…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of odd characteristic $p$. We exhibit elliptic curves over the rational function field $K = \mathbb{F}_q(t)$ whose Tate-Shafarevich groups are large. More precisely, we consider certain infinite…
The main result of this paper is the proof for elliptic modular threefolds of conjectures on the existence and structure of a filtration on the Chow groups of smooth projective varieties. In the form we prove them these conjectures were…
For certain product varieties, Murre's conjecture on Chow groups is investigated. In particular, it is proved that Murre's conjecture (B) is true for two kinds of four-folds. Precisely, if $C$ is a curve and $X$ is an elliptic modular…
We introduce equivariant Chow-Witt groups in order to define Chow-Witt groups of quotient stacks. We compute the Chow-Witt ring of the moduli stack of stable (resp. smooth) elliptic curves, providing a geometric interpretation of the new…
We prove that a very general elliptic surface $\mathcal{E}\to\mathbb{P}^1$ over the complex numbers with a section and with geometric genus $p_g\ge2$ contains no rational curves other than the section and components of singular fibers.…
Infinite products expansions of the Weierstrass elliptic function \ $\wp(z) = \wp(z,1,\tau)$\ and $n$-order transformations allow us to provide some modular relations.
Let $E/\bbq$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\bbq$ with conductor $N$ and $\gq$ the absolute Galois group of an algebraic closure $\bar{\bbq}$ of $\bbq$. We prove that for every $\sigma\in \gq$, the Mordell-Weil group $E(\oqs)$ of $E$…
Let $K$ be an extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ and $A/K$ an elliptic curve. If $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar K/K)$ is finitely generated, then $A$ is of infinite rank over $K$. In particular, this implies the $g=1$ case of the Junker-Koenigsmann conjecture.…
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 $E_N$ denote the coarse moduli space of smooth elliptic surfaces over $\mathbb{P}^1$ with fundamental invariant $N$. We compute the Chow ring $A^*(E_N)$ for $N\geq 2$. For each $N\geq 2$, $A^*(E_N)$ is Gorenstein with socle in…
We consider algebraic surfaces, recently constructed by Schreieder, that are smooth models of the quotient of the self-product of a complex hyperelliptic curve by a $(\mathbb{Z}/3^c\mathbb{Z})$-action. We show that these surfaces are…
Given a genus two curve $X: y^2 = x^5 + a x^3 + b x^2 + c x + d$, we give an explicit parametrization of all other such curves $Y$ with a specified symplectic isomorphism on three-torsion of Jacobians $\mbox{Jac}(X)[3] \cong…
In this paper, we discuss a longstanding conjecture of Greenberg in the Iwasawa theory of elliptic curves. Greenberg's conjecture states that if $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with good ordinary reduction at $p$, and $E[p]$ is…
We investigate modularity of elliptic curves over a general totally real number field, establishing a finiteness result for the set non-modular $j$-invariants. By analyzing quadratic points on some modular curves, we show that all elliptic…
