Determining the rank of an elliptic curve E/Q remains a central challenge in number theory. Heuristics such as Mestre--Nagao sums are widely used to estimate ranks, but there is considerable room for improving their predictive power. This…

This paper investigates the detection of the rank of elliptic curves with ranks 0 and 1, employing a heuristic known as the Mestre-Nagao sum \[ S(B) = \frac{1}{\log{B}} \sum_{\substack{p<B \\ \textrm{good reduction}}}…

We apply one-dimensional convolutional neural networks to the Frobenius traces of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and evaluate and interpret their predictive capacity. In keeping with similar experiments by Kazalicki--Vlah,…

Random matrices provide a well-established statistical model for a range of arithmetic phenomena. In this paper, we investigate the extent to which one- and two-dimensional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can distinguish between…

By the Mordell-Weil theorem the group of Q(z)-rational points of an elliptic curve is finitely generated. It is not known whether the rank of this group can get arbitrary large as the curve varies. Mestre and Nagao have constructed examples…

An elliptic curve E defined over \Q is an algebraic variety which forms a finitely generated abelian group, and the structure theorem then implies that E = \Z^r + \Z_{tors} for some r \geq 0; this value r is called the rank of E. It is a…

Electrophysiological observation plays a major role in epilepsy evaluation. However, human interpretation of brain signals is subjective and prone to misdiagnosis. Automating this process, especially seizure detection relying on scalp-based…

We produce explicit elliptic curves over \Bbb F_p(t) whose Mordell-Weil groups have arbitrarily large rank. Our method is to prove the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer for these curves (or rather the Tate conjecture for related…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $E_{p}$ denote the elliptic curve $y^2=x^3+px$. It is known that for $p$ which is congruent to $1, 9$ modulo $16$, the rank of $E_{p}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ is equal to $0, 2$. Under the condition that the Birch…
