We consider the reduction of an elliptic curve defined over the rational numbers modulo primes in a given arithmetic progression and investigate how often the subgroup of rational points of this reduced curve is cyclic as a special case of…
Let E be an elliptic curve over a number field K which admits a cyclic p-isogeny with p odd and semistable at primes above p. We determine the root number and the parity of the p-Selmer rank for E/K, in particular confirming the parity…
In this paper, we calculate the $ \phi (\hat{\phi})-$Selmer groups $ S^{(\phi)} (E / \Q) $ and $ S^{(\hat{\varphi})} (E^{\prime} / \Q) $ of elliptic curves $ y^{2} = x (x + \epsilon p D) (x + \epsilon q D) $ via descent theory (see [S,…
We explore the relationship between (3-isogeny induced) Selmer group of an elliptic curve and the (3 part of) the ideal class group, over certain non-abelian number fields.
In this paper, we prove a function field-analogue of Poonen-Rains heuristics on the average size of $p$-Selmer group. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Z}[t]$. Then $E$ is also defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ for any $q$ of…
We show that if p is a prime, then all elliptic curves defined over the cyclotomic Z_p extension of Q are modular.
We show that if F is the rational numbers or a multiquadratic number field, p is 2,3, or 5, and K/F is a Galois extension of degree a power of p, then for elliptic curves E/Q ordered by height, the average dimension of the p-Selmer groups…
The aim of this article is to give some numerical data related to the order of the Selmer groups in twist families of elliptic curves. To do this we assume the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture is true and we use a celebrated theorem of…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the Bloch-Kato-Shafarevich-Tate group of a modular form f over the cyclotomic Zp-extension of Q under the assumption that f is non-ordinary at p. In particular, we give upper bounds of these groups in…
Let f(x) be a polynomial of degree at least 5 with complex coefficients and without repeated roots. Let p be an odd prime. Suppose that all the coefficients of f(x) lie in a subfield K such that: 1) K contains a primitive p-th root of…
Given a prime number $p$, Bloch and Kato showed how the $p^\infty$-Selmer group of an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$ is determined by the $p$-adic Tate module. In general, the $p^m$-Selmer group $\mathrm{Sel}_{p^m} A$ need not…
Let $p$ be a prime, $k$ a finite extension of $\mathbf{F}_p$ of cardinal $q$, $l$ a finite extension of $k$ of group $\Sigma=\mathrm{Gal}(l|k)$, and $T$ a subgroup of $l^\times$. Using the method of "little groups", we classify irreducible…
Using maximal isotropic submodules in a quadratic module over Z_p, we prove the existence of a natural discrete probability distribution on the set of isomorphism classes of short exact sequences of co-finite type Z_p-modules, and then…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number, and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field which has good reduction at every prime above $p$. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that the $\eta$-eigenspace and the $\bar{\eta}$-eigenspace…
Let O be a maximal order in the quaternion algebra B_p over Q ramified at p and infinity. The paper is about the computational problem: Construct a supersingular elliptic curve E over F_p such that End(E) = O. We present an algorithm that…
We study the parity of 2-Selmer ranks in the family of quadratic twists of an arbitrary elliptic curve E over an arbitrary number field K. We prove that the fraction of twists (of a given elliptic curve over a fixed number field) having…
Let $F$ be a global function field of characteristic $p>0$, $K/F$ an $\ell$-adic Lie extension ($\ell\neq p$) and $A/F$ an abelian variety. We provide Euler characteristic formulas for the $Gal(K/F)$-module $Sel_A(K)_\ell$.
In this paper, for every prime $p$ and every $0\le n\le \infty$, we classify the structure of the torsion subgroup of the group of $\mathbb{Q}_p(\mu_{p^n})$-rational points of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with good reduction, where…
Let $p$ be an irregular prime. Let $K=\Q(\zeta)$ be the $p$-cyclotomic field. From Kummer and class field theory, there exist Galois extensions $S/\Q$ of degree $p(p-1)$ such that $S/K$ is a cyclic unramified extension of degree $[S:K]=p$.…
We study this subject by first proving that the p-primary subgroup of the classical Selmer group for an elliptic curve with good, ordinary reduction at a prime p has a very simple and elegant description which involves just the Galois…
