We show that under the assumption of Artin's Primitive Root Conjecture, for all primes p there exist ordinary elliptic curves over $\bar F_p(x)$ with arbitrary high rank and constant j-invariant. For odd primes p, this result follows from a…

In this paper, we analyze the theta series associated to the quadratic form $Q(\mathbf{x}) := x_1^2 + x_2^2 + x_3^2 + x_4^2$ with congruence conditions on $x_i$ modulo $2, 3, 4$, and $6$. By employing special operators on modular,…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, a celebrated conjecture of Goldfeld asserts that a positive proportion of its quadratic twists should have analytic rank 0 (resp. 1). We show this conjecture holds whenever $E$ has a rational…

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…

In this article, we study the cyclicity problem of elliptic curves $E/\Bbb{Q}$ modulo primes in a given arithmetic progression. We extend the recent work of Akbal and G\"ulo\u{g}lu by proving an unconditional asymptotic for such a cyclicity…

Fix an elliptic curve E over Q. An extremal prime for E is a prime p of good reduction such that the number of rational points on E modulo p is maximal or minimal in relation to the Hasse bound. Assuming that all the symmetric power…

Fix $p$ an odd prime. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with semistable reduction at $p$. We show that the adjoint $p$-adic $L$-function of $E$ evaluated at infinitely many integers prime to $p$ completely determines up to a…

An elliptic divisibility sequence, generated by a point in the image of a rational isogeny, is shown to possess a uniformly bounded number of prime terms. This result applies over the rational numbers, assuming Lang's conjecture, and over…
