We describe explicit multiplicative excellent families of rational elliptic surfaces with Galois group isomorphic to the Weyl group of the root lattices E_7 or E_8. The Weierstrass coefficients of each family are related by an invertible…
A regular $t$-balanced Cayley map on a group $\Gamma$ is an embedding of a Cayley graph on $\Gamma$ into a surface with certain special symmetric properties. We completely classify regular $t$-balanced Cayley maps for a class of split…
We constructed several families of elliptic K3 surfaces with Mordell-Weil groups of ranks from 1 to 4. We studied F-theory compactifications on these elliptic K3 surfaces times a K3 surface. Gluing pairs of identical rational elliptic…
Using the Galatius--Kupers--Randal-Williams framework of cellular $E_2$-algebras, we prove a secondary stability theorem for mapping class groups of nonorientable surfaces. As a corollary, we obtain a new best known stability range for the…
This survey paper concerns elliptic surfaces with section. We give a detailed overview of the theory including many examples. Emphasis is placed on rational elliptic surfaces and elliptic K3 surfaces. To this end, we particularly review the…
We construct the $E_8$ lattice from classical error-correcting codes over the Mordell-Weil groups of rational elliptic surfaces that have a singularity lattice of rank 8 (maximal) for all cases of Oguiso-Shioda's classification. By the…
We construct infinite families of pairs of (geometrically non-isogenous) elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $12$-torsion subgroups that are isomorphic as Galois modules. This extends previous work of Chen and Fisher where it is…
Let $A,B$ be nonzero rational numbers. Consider the elliptic curve $E_{A,B}/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ with Weierstrass equation $y^2=x^3+At^6+B$. An algorithm to determine $\mathrm{rank } E_{A,B}(\mathbb{Q}(t))$ as a function of $(A,B)$ was presented…
In studying rational points on elliptic K3 surfaces of the form $f(t)y^2=g(x)$, where $f,g$ are cubic or quartic polynomials (without repeated roots), we introduce a condition on the quadratic twists of two elliptic curves having…
A new class of integrable maps, obtained as lattice versions of polynomial dynamical systems is introduced. These systems are obtained by means of a discretization procedure that preserves several analytic and algebraic properties of a…
Let $X$ be a complex hypersurface in a $\mathbf{P}^n$-bundle over a curve $C$. Let $C'\to C$ be a Galois cover with group $G$. In this paper we describe the $\mathbf{C}[G]$-structure of $H^{p,q}(X\times_C C')$ provided that $X\times_C C'$…
Consider elliptic curves $ E=E_\sigma: y^2 = x (x+\sigma p) (x+\sigma q), $ where$ \sigma =\pm 1, $ $p$ and $ q$ are prime numbers with $p+2=q$. (1) The Selmer groups $ S^{(2)}(E/{\mathbf{Q}}), S^{(\phi)}(E/{\mathbf{Q})}$, and $\…
We give a systematic method to calculate some homological data from the global monodromy of a topological elliptic surface. We apply this method to the cases 1) the transcendental lattice of an extremal elliptic K3 surface, 2) the torsion…
Let $K$ be a number field, $\bar{K}$ an algebraic closure of $K$ and $E/K$ an elliptic curve defined over $K$. In this paper, we prove that if $E/K$ has a $K$-rational point $P$ such that $2P\neq O$ and $3P\neq O$, then for each $\sigma\in…
In this paper, we give an effective and efficient algorithm which on input takes non-zero integers $A$ and $B$ and on output produces the generators of the Mordell-Weil group of the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ given by an equation…
This master thesis describes how Selmer groups can be used to determine the Mordell-Weil group of elliptic curves over a number field K. The Mordell-Weil Theorem states that $E(K) = E(K)_{tors} \times Z^r$, where $r$ is the rank of $E$, and…
We undertake a study of topological properties of the real Mordell-Weil group $\operatorname{MW}_{\mathbb R}$ of real rational elliptic surfaces $X$ which we accompany by a related study of real lines on $X$ and on the "subordinate" del…
For a semisimple Lie algebra admitting a good enumeration, we prove a parametrization for the elements in its Weyl group. As an application, we give a coordinate-free comparison between the crystal graph description (when it is known) and…
We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…
Let $k$ be a number field and $\mathcal{E}$ an elliptic curve defined over the function field $k(T)$ given by an equation of the form $y^2 = a_3x^3 + a_2x^2 + a_1x + a_0$, where $a_i \in k[T]$ and $deg(a_i) \leq 2$. We explore the conic…
