We generalise the Siegel-Voloch theorem about S-integral points on elliptic curves as follows: let K/F denote a global function field over a finite field F of characteristic p>3, let S denote a finite set of places of K and let E/K denote a…

For a quadratic field K, we investigate continuous mod p representations of the absolute Galois groups of K that are unramified away from p and infinity. We prove that for certain pairs (K,p), there are no such irreducible representations.…

Using an analogue of Serre's open image theorem for elliptic curves with complex multiplication, one can associate to each CM elliptic curve $E$ defined over a number field $F$ a natural number $\mathcal{I}(E/F)$ which describes how big the…

We study Galois embedding problems arising from the 3-torsion of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, extending the correspondence to all possible images of mod 3 Galois representations; namely,…

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.…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G = E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion subgroup. We study, for a given G, which possible groups G <= H could appear such that H=E(K)_tors, for [K:Q]=4 and H is one of the possible torsion…

Let $K$ be a quadratic number field and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $K$ such that $E[2] \not\subseteq E(K).$ In this paper, we study the effect of quadratic base change on $E(K)_{\text{tor}}.$ Moreover, for a given elliptic…

We prove an explicit surjectivity result for products of non-isotrivial, non-isogenous elliptic curves over a function field of arbitrary characteristic. This is by way of an isogeny degree bound in this setting, generated from bounds for…

Let $K$ be a composite field of some real quadratic fields. We give a sufficient condition on $K$ such that all elliptic curves over $K$ is modular.

We show that for all epsilon > 0, there is a constant C(epsilon) > 0 such that for all elliptic curves E defined over a number field F with j(E) in Q we have #E(F)[tors] \leq C(epsilon)[F:Q]^{5/2+epsilon}. We pursue further bounds on the…

Suppose that $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with a rational point $T$ of order $2$ and $\alpha \in E(\mathbb{Q})$ is a point of infinite order. We consider the problem of determining the density of primes $p$ for which $\alpha \in…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field and $E$ an elliptic curve over $K$ with potential good reduction. For some large Galois extensions $L$ of $K$ containing all $p$-power roots of unity, we show the vanishing of certain Galois cohomology groups of…

Let $E_{/\mathbb{Q}}$ be an elliptic curve with rank $E(\mathbb{Q})=0$. Fix an odd prime $p$, a positive integer $n$ and a finite abelian extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$ with rank $E(K) = 0$. In this paper, we show that there exist infinitely many…

In this note we obtain effective lower bounds for the canonical heights of non-torsion points on $E(\mathbb{Q})$ by making use of suitable elliptic curve ideal class pairings $$\Psi_{E,-D}: E(\mathbb{Q})\times E_{-D}(\mathbb{Q})\mapsto…

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$. Let $m$ be a positive integer. We denote by ${\mathcal{E}}[m]$ the $m$-torsion subgroup of $\mathcal{E}$ and by $K_m:=K({\mathcal{E}}[m])$ the number field obtained by…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ and a positive integer $N$, we consider the problem of counting the number of primes $p$ for which the reduction of $E$ modulo $p$ possesses exactly $N$ points over $\mathbb F_p$. On average (over a family of…

Let $E$ be a non CM elliptic curve defined over $\Q$. There is an isogeny-torsion graph associated to $E$ and there is also a Galois representation $\rho_{E,l^{\infty}} \colon \Gal(\Qbar/\Q) \to \GL_2(\ZZ_{\ell})$ associated to $E$ for…

Let $E$ be an elliptic defined over a number field $K$. Then its Mordell-Weil group $E(K)$ is finitely generated: $E(K)\cong E(K)_{tor}\times\mathbb{Z}^r$. In this paper, we discuss the cyclic torsion subgroup of elliptic curves over cubic…
