We show that there is essentially a unique elliptic curve $E$ defined over a cubic Galois extension $K$ of $\mathbb Q$ with a $K$-rational point of order 13 and such that $E$ is not defined over $\mathbb Q$.
We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])…
Let $C$ be an algebraic curve embedded transversally in a power $E^N$ of an elliptic curve $E$. In this article we produce a good explicit bound for the height of all the algebraic points on $C$ contained in the union of all proper…
Let $K$ be a totally real field, and let $S$ be a finite set of non-archimedean places of $K$. It follows from the work of Merel, Momose and David that there is a constant $B_{K,S}$ so that if $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$,…
We determine the quantum multiplication with divisor classes on the Hilbert scheme of points on an elliptic surface $S \to \Sigma$ for all curve classes which are contracted by the induced fibration $S^{[n]} \to \Sigma^{[n]}$. The formula…
We prove Larsen's conjecture for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with analytic rank at most $1$. Specifically, let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. If $E/\mathbb{Q}$ has analytic rank at most $1$, then we prove that…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$. Let $\Gamma$ be a subgroup of $E(\mathbb Q)$ and $P\in E(\mathbb Q)$. In [1], it was proved that if $E$ has no nontrivial rational torsion points, then $P\in\Gamma$ if and only if $P\in…
For an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ we show that there are infinitely many cyclic sextic extensions $K/\mathbb{Q}$ such that the Mordell-Weil group $E(K)$ has rank greater than the subgroup of $E(K)$ generated by all the $E(F)$ for the…
In a recent work the authors prove the effective asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem for the infinite family of fields $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{2^{r+2}})^+$ where $r \ge 0$. A crucial step in their proof is the following conjecture of Kraus. Let $K$…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $k$ and $\ell$ a prime integer. When $E$ has at least one $k$-rational point of exact order $\ell$, we derive a uniform upper bound $\exp(C \log B / \log \log B)$ for the number of…
We combine the exact counting of all elliptic curves over $K = \mathbb{F}_q(t)$ with $\mathrm{char}(K) > 3$ by Bejleri, Satriano and the author, together with the torsion-free nature of most elliptic curves over global function fields…
Let $\ell$ and $p \geq 3$ be distinct prime numbers. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_{\ell}$ be an elliptic curve with $p$-torsion module $E_p$. Let $\mathbb{Q}_{\ell}(E_p)$ be the $p$-torsion field of $E$. We provide a complete description of the degree…
Let E/Q be an elliptic curve and let p be an odd supersingular prime for E. In this article, we study the simplest case of Iwasawa theory for elliptic curves, namely when E(Q) is finite, III(E/Q) has no p-torsion and the Tamagawa factors…
Let A be the coordinate ring of an affine elliptic curve (over an infinite field k) of the form X-{p}, where X is projective and p is a closed point on X. Denote by F the function field of X. We show that the image of H_*(GL_2(A),Z) in…
In this paper, we investigate extreme values of $\omega(E(\mathbb{F}_p))$, where $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with complex multiplication and $\omega$ is the number-of-distinct-prime-divisors function. For fixed $\gamma > 1$, we…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Let X(p^e;N) be the curve parameterizing elliptic curves with full level N structure (where p does not divide N) and full level p^e Igusa structure. By modular curve, we mean a…
We prove the following special case of Mazur's conjecture on the topology of rational points. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $j$-invariant $1728$. For a class of elliptic pencils which are quadratic twists of $E$ by…
Let $K = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$ or $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1})$ and let $C_n$ denote the cyclic group of order $n$. We study how the torsion part of an elliptic curve over $K$ grows in a quadratic extension of $K$. In the case $E(K)[2] \approx…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an algebraically closed, complete, non-archimedean field $K$, and let ${\mathsf E}$ denote the Berkovich analytic space associated to $E/K$. We study the $\mu$-equidistribution of finite subsets of $E(K)$,…
For a quadratic field $\mathcal{K}$ without rationally defined CM, we prove that there exists of a prime $p_{\mathcal{K}}$ depending only on $\mathcal{K}$ such that if $d$ is a positive integer whose minimal prime divisor is greater than…
