We complete the computation of all $\mathbb{Q}$-rational points on all the $64$ maximal Atkin-Lehner quotients $X_0(N)^*$ such that the quotient is hyperelliptic. To achieve this, we use a combination of various methods, namely the…
Let $h(x,y)$ be a non-degenerate binary cubic form with integral coefficients, and let $S$ be an arbitrary finite set of prime numbers. By a classical theorem of Mahler, there are only finitely many pairs of relatively prime integers $x,y$…
We generalize the explicit quadratic Chabauty techniques for integral points on odd degree hyperelliptic curves and for rational points on genus 2 bielliptic curves to arbitrary number fields using restriction of scalars. This is achieved…
Answering a question of Zureick-Brown, we determine the cubic points on the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for $N \in \{53,57,61,65,67,73\}$ as well as the quartic points on $X_0(65)$. To do so, we develop a "partially relative" symmetric Chabauty…
We prove that integral points can be effectively determined on all but finitely many modular curves, and on all but one modular curve of prime power level.
In [Kim05], Kim gave a new proof of Siegel's Theorem that there are only finitely many $S$-integral points on $\mathbb P^1_{\mathbb Z}\setminus\{0,1,\infty\}$. One advantage of Kim's method is that it in principle allows one to actually…
We reveal a new and refined application of (a weaker statement than) the Iwasawa main conjecture for elliptic curves to the structure of Selmer groups of elliptic curves of arbitrary rank. For a large class of elliptic curves, we obtain the…
We study generalisations to totally real fields of methods originating with Wiles and Taylor-Wiles. In view of the results of Skinner-Wiles on elliptic curves with ordinary reduction, we focus here on the case of supersingular reduction.…
We give refined methods for proving finiteness of the Chabauty--Coleman--Kim set $X(\mathbb{Q}_2 )_2 $, when $X$ is a hyperelliptic curve with a rational Weierstrass point. The main developments are methods for computing Selmer conditions…
We describe how the quadratic Chabauty method may be applied to explicitly determine the set of rational points on modular curves of genus $g>1$ whose Jacobians have Mordell--Weil rank $g$. This extends our previous work on the split Cartan…
For a given elliptic curve $E$ over a finite local ring, we denote by $E^{\infty}$ its subgroup at infinity. Every point $P \in E^{\infty}$ can be described solely in terms of its $x$-coordinate $P_x$, which can be therefore used to…
Let $p\geq5$ be a prime number and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field where $p$ is unramified. Under mild technical assumptions, in this paper we prove the non-existence of non-trivial finite $\Lambda$-submodules of Pontryagin duals of…
We prove several results on torsion points and Galois representations for complex multiplication (CM) elliptic curves over a number field containing the CM field. One result computes the degree in which such an elliptic curve has a rational…
Given a smooth, proper, geometrically integral curve $X$ of genus $g$ with Jacobian $J$ over a number field $K$, Chabauty's method is a $p$-adic technique to bound $\# X(K)$ when $\mathrm{rank}\ J(K) < g$. We study limitations of a variant…
This paper contains some results regarding the Iwasawa module structure of Selmer groups of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.
Let K be a number field, let f: P_1 --> P_1 be a nonconstant rational map of degree greater than 1, let S be a finite set of places of K, and suppose that u, w in P_1(K) are not preperiodic under f. We prove that the set of (m,n) in N^2…
We prove that the group of rational points of a non-isotrivial elliptic curve defined over the perfect closure of a function field in one variable over a finite field is finiteley generated.
Let $f \colon X \to B$ be a nonisotrivial complex elliptic surface and let $\mathcal{D} \subset X$ be an integral divisor dominating $B$. We study finiteness related properties of generalized $(S, \mathcal{D})$-integral sections $\sigma…
We study the arithmetic of Galois-invariant sets of points on algebraic curves with controlled reduction behavior. Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve with a smooth proper model $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathcal{O}_{K,S}$. We define $\Omega_n$…
We prove that there are finitely many perfect powers in elliptic divisibility sequences generated by a non-integral point on elliptic curves of the from $y^2=x(x^2+b)$, where $b$ is any positive integer. We achieve this by using the…
