Let $K$ be a fixed number field, assumed to be Galois over $\mathbb Q$. Let $r$ and $f$ be fixed integers with $f$ positive. Given an elliptic curve $E$, defined over $K$, we consider the problem of counting the number of degree $f$ prime…

Following Lang and Trotter we describe a probabilistic model that predicts the distribution of primes $p$ with given Frobenius traces at $p$ for two fixed elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. In addition, we propose explicit Euler product…

For an elliptic curve $E$ over $\ratq$ and an integer $r$ let $\pi_E^r(x)$ be the number of primes $p\le x$ of good reduction such that the trace of the Frobenius morphism of $E/\fie_p$ equals $r$. We consider the quantity $\pi_E^r(x)$ on…

He, Lee, Oliver, and Pozdnyakov~\cite{HLOP} have empirically observed that the average of the $p$th coefficients of the $L$-functions of elliptic curves of particular ranks in a given range of conductors $N$ appears to approximate a…

We compute the first murmurations for elliptic curves over function fields F_q(t): oscillatory patterns in average Frobenius traces that separate rank-0 from rank-1 curves, with z-scores up to 256. For the family E_D: y^2 = x^3 + x + D(t)…

Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime and for $a, b \in \mathbb{F}_{p}$, let $E_{a,b}$ denote the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with equation $y^2=x^3+a\,x + b$. As usual define the trace of Frobenius $a_{p,\,a,\,b}$ by \begin{equation*}…

We obtain distribution results for traces of Frobenius for various families of elliptic curves with respect to the Lang-Trotter conjecture, extremal primes, and the central limit theorem. This includes some generalisations and bounds…

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…

We show that for all odd primes $p$, there exist ordinary elliptic curves over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p(x)$ with arbitrarily high rank and constant $j$-invariant. This shows in particular that there are elliptic curves with arbitrarily high rank…

We define a function in terms of quotients of the $p$-adic gamma function which generalizes earlier work of the author on extending hypergeometric functions over finite fields to the $p$-adic setting. We prove, for primes $p > 3$, that the…

We investigate the average rank in the family of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, when the curves are ordered using the canonical height of their lowest non-torsion rational point.

We show that the distribution of elliptic curves in isogeny classes of curves with a given value of the Frobenius trace $t$ becomes close to uniform even when $t$ is averaged over very short intervals inside the Hasse-Weil interval.

The parity of the analytic rank of an elliptic curve is given by the root number in the functional equation L(E,s). Fixing an elliptic curve over any number field and considering the family of its quadratic twists, it is natural to ask what…

In this paper, we are concerned with the computations of the $p$-rank of curves in two different setups. We first work with complete intersection varieties in $\mb{P}^n \text{ for}~n\ge 2$ and compute explicitly the action of Frobenius on…

We conjecture that, for a fixed prime $p$, rational elliptic curves with higher rank tend to have more points mod $p$. We show that there is an analogous bias for modular forms with respect to root numbers, and conjecture that the order of…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. In 1976, Lang and Trotter conjectured an asymptotic formula for the number $\pi_{E,r}(X)$ of primes $p \leq X$ of good reduction for which the Frobenius trace at $p$ associated to $E$…

For an elliptic curve A defined over a global function field K of characteristic p>0, the p-Selmer group of the Frobenius twist of A tends to have larger order than that of A. The aim of this note is to discuss this phenomenon.

Starting from the elliptic curve $E: y^2 = x^3 - x$ over $\mathbb{F}_9$, a curve $\mathcal{X}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{3^{2n}}$ and a cyclic cover of $\mathcal{X}$ of degree $m \in \{2,3,4,6\}$, we construct the corresponding $m$-twists over the…
