In this note we extend the theory of twists of elliptic curves as presented in various standard texts for characteristic not equal to two or three to the remaining characteristics. For this, we make explicit use of the correspondence…
Consider the family of elliptic curves $E_n:y^2=x^3+n^2$, where $n$ varies over positive cubefree integers. There is a rational $3$-isogeny $\phi$ from $E_n$ to $\hat{E}_n:y^2=x^3-27n^2$ and a dual isogeny $\hat{\phi}:\hat{E}_n\rightarrow…
This is a continuation of our previous paper 1502.01744. We examine a class of non-commutative algebras A that depend on an elliptic curve and a translation automorphism of it. They may be defined in terms of the 4-dimensional Sklyanin…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $\alpha_{1}$, $\alpha_{2}$, and $\alpha_{3}$ be algebraically independent and transcendental over $k$. Let $K$ be the transcendental extension of $k$ obtained by adjoining the elementary…
For E/k an elliptic curve with CM by O, we determine a formula for (a generalization of) the arithmetic local constant of [4] at almost all primes of good reduction. We apply this formula to the CM curves defined over Q and are able to…
Fix a pair of relatively prime integers $n>k\ge 1$, and a point $(\eta\,|\,\tau)\in\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{H}$, where $\mathbb{H}$ denotes the upper-half complex plane, and let ${{a\;\,b}\choose{c\,\;d}}\in\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. We…
We show that for an elliptic curve E defined over a number field K, the group E(A) of points of E over the adele ring A of K is a topological group that can be analyzed in terms of the Galois representation associated to the torsion points…
In this article, we consider a family of elliptic curves defined by $E_{m}: y^2= x^3 -m^2 x + (pqr)^2 $ where $m $ is a positive integer and $p, q, ~\text{and}~ r$ are distinct odd primes and study the torsion as well the rank of…
We study a subclass of congruent elliptic curves $E^{(n)}: y^2=x^3-n^2x$, where $n$ is a positive integer congruent to $1\pmod 8$ with all prime factors congruent to $1\pmod 4$. We characterize such $E^{(n)}$ with Mordell-Weil rank zero and…
In this lecture we give a brief introduction to Weierstrass points of curves and computational aspects of $q$-Weierstrass points on superelliptic curves.
For a given group $G$ and an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a number field $K$, I discuss the problem of finding $G$-extensions of $K$ over which $E$ gains rank. I prove the following theorem, extending a result of Fearnley, Kisilevsky,…
We propose an algorithm that calculates isogenies between elliptic curves defined over an extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}_2$. It consists in efficiently solving with a logarithmic loss of $2$-adic precision the first order differential…
We classify all possible charge-3 monopole spectral curves with non-trivial automorphism group and within these identify those with elliptic quotients. By focussing on elliptic quotients the transcendental constraints for a monopole…
For a given elliptic curve $E_0$ defined over a number field $k$, we construct two families of elliptic curves whose mod 3 representations are isomorphic to that of $E_0$. The isomorphisms in the first family are symplectic, and those in…
In this note, we show that to each elliptic curve of the form $$y^2-axy-y=x^3-bx^2-cx,$$ we can associate a family of lattice paths whose step set is determined by the parameters of the elliptic curve. The enumeration of these lattice paths…
Let $(X,\omega_0):=(\mathbb{C}/\Lambda,0)$ denote the elliptic curve associated to the lattice $\Lambda$, $X_2:=\{\omega_0,\cdots, \omega_3\}$ its set of half-periods and $\wp:X \to \mathbb{P}^1$ the usual Weierstrass $\wp$ function, with a…
For each group $G$, $(|G| > 2)$ \, which acts as a full automorphism group on a genus 3 hyperelliptic curve, we determine the family of curves which have 2-Weierstrass points. Such families of curves are explicitly determined in terms of…
If $E$ is a minimal elliptic curve defined over $\ZZ$, we obtain a bound $C$, depending only on the global Tamagawa number of $E$, such that for any point $P\in E(\QQ)$, $nP$ is integral for at most one value of $n>C$. As a corollary, we…
It is a classical fact going back to F. Klein that an elliptic curve $E$ over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ is defined by a homogeneous polynomial in $3$ variables with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}(j_{E})$, where $j_{E}$ is the $j$-invariant of $E$,…
Let E/Q be an elliptic curve with a fixed modular parametrization F : X_0(N) --> E and let P_1,...,P_r be Heegner points on E attached to the rings of integers of distinct quadratic imaginary field k_1,...,k_r. We prove that if the odd…
