In this paper, we show that Tian's induction method can be generalised to study the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for the quadratic twists, both with global root number $+1$ and with global root number $-1$, of certain elliptic curves…

We give some heuristics for counting elliptic curves with certain properties. In particular, we re-derive the Brumer-McGuinness heuristic for the number of curves with positive/negative discriminant up to $X$, which is an application of…

Watkins' conjecture asserts that the rank of an elliptic curve is upper bounded by the $2$-adic valuation of its modular degree. We show that this conjecture is satisfied when $E$ is any quadratic twist of an elliptic curve with rational…

Watkins conjectured that for an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ of Mordell-Weil rank $r$, the modular degree of $E$ is divisible by $2^r$. If $E$ has non-trivial rational $2$-torsion, we prove the conjecture for all the quadratic…

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…

We show that universal elliptic Carmichael numbers do not exist, answering a question of Silverman. Moreover, we show that the probability that an integer $n$, which is not a prime power, is an elliptic Carmichael number for a random curve…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with function field $K$, $E/K$ a nonconstant elliptic curve and $\phi:\mathcal{E}\to C$ its minimal regular model. For each $P\in C$ such that $E$ has good reduction at $P$, i.e., the…

An elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ is said to be good if $N_{E}^{6}<\max\!\left\{ \left\vert c_{4}^{3}\right\vert ,c_{6}^{2}\right\} $ where $N_{E}$ is the conductor of $E$ and $c_{4}$ and $c_{6}$ are the invariants associated to a…

We present an elliptic curve analog of the Stark conjecture for the value of the $L$-function at $s=0$. Although implied by the general Beilinson conjectures, the approach here is very concrete. Several cases are proved.

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We attach appropriate signed Selmer groups to an elliptic curve $E$, where $E$ is assumed to have semistable reduction at all primes above $p$. We then compare the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants of these signed Selmer…

We improve the Chebotarev variant of the Brun-Titchmarsh theorem proven by Lagarias, Montgomery, and Odlyzko using the log-free zero density estimate and zero repulsion phenomenon for Hecke L-functions that were recently proved by the…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p \in \{5,7,11 \}$ be a prime. We determine the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p}))_{tors}$. Additionally, we determine all the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{16}))_{tors}$ and…

We prove that the set of Farey fractions of order $T$, that is, the set $\{\alpha/\beta \in \Q : \gcd(\alpha, \beta) = 1, 1 \le \alpha, \beta \le T\}$, is uniformly distributed in residue classes modulo a prime $p$ provided $T \ge p^{1/2…

If $E$ is an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$, then it follows from work of Serre and Hooley that, under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the density of primes $p$ such that the group of $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points…

For a prime number $p$, we study the asymptotic distribution of CM points on the moduli space of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{C}_p$. In stark contrast to the complex case, in the $p$-adic setting there are infinitely many different…

In this paper, we establish several asymptotical bounds for the complete elliptic integrals of the second kind $\mathcal{E}(r)$, and improve the well-known conjecture $\mathcal{E}(r)>\pi[(1+(1-r^2)^{3/4})/2]^{2/3}/2$ for all $r\in(0,1)$…

We prove the $p$-parity conjecture for elliptic curves over global fields of characteristic $p > 3$. We also present partial results on the $\ell$-parity conjecture for primes $\ell \neq p$.

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve of rank $\text{rk}(E) \geq 1$, and let $E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ be the elliptic group of order $\#E(\mathbb{F}_p)=n$. The number of primes $p\leq x$ such that $n$ is prime is expected to be $\pi(x,E)=\delta(E)x/\log^2…

We prove several results regarding some invariants of elliptic curves on average over the family of all elliptic curves inside a box of sides $A$ and $B$. As an example, let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $p$ be a…
