We present a heuristic that suggests that ranks of elliptic curves over the rationals are bounded. In fact, it suggests that there are only finitely many elliptic curves of rank greater than 21. Our heuristic is based on modeling the ranks…

Given any positive integer n, it is well known that there always exist triangles with rational sides a, b and c such that the area of the triangle is n. Assuming finiteness of the Shafarevich-Tate group, we first construct a family of…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct odd primes, $p<q$ and $E_{p,q}:y^2=x^3-pqx$ be an elliptic curve. Fix a line $L_{a.b}:y=\frac{a}{b}x$ where $a\in \mathbb{Z},b\in \mathbb{N}$ and $(a,b)=1$. We study sufficient conditions that $p$ and $q$…

We give conditions on the rational numbers a,b,c which imply that there are infinitely many triples (x,y,z) of rational numbers such that x+y+z=a+b+c and xyz=abc. We do the same for the equations x+y+z=a+b+c and x^3+y^3+z^3=a^3+b^3+c^3.…

For an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, putting $K=\mathbb{Q}(E[p])$ which is the $p$-th division field of $E$ for an odd prime $p$, we study the ideal class group $\mathrm{Cl}_K$ of $K$ as a $\mathrm{Gal}(K/\mathbb{Q})$-module. More…

For every n there exists an elliptic curve E over the rational numbers and an n-dimensional subspace V of non-zero rationals modulo squares such that for all v in V, the quadratic twist of E by v has positive rank.

We consider the $M$-curves of degree nine with three nests $1 \langle \alpha_i \rangle, i = 1, 2, 3$ in $\mathbb{R}P^2$. After systematic constructions, Korchagin conjectured that at least two of the $\alpha_i$ must be odd. It was later…

We generalise the Siegel-Voloch theorem about S-integral points on elliptic curves as follows: let K/F denote a global function field over a finite field F of characteristic p>3, let S denote a finite set of places of K and let E/K denote a…

It is known, that for every elliptic curve over Q there exists a quadratic extension in which the rank does not go up. For a large class of elliptic curves, the same is known with the rank replaced by the 2-Selmer group. We show, however,…

In this article, we produce infinite families of non-congruent numbers in the residue class of $1,2,$ and $3$ modulo $8$ with arbitrarily many triples or quadruples prime factors. In short, we use Monsky matrix to show that the $2$-Selmer…

We unconditionally determine $I_\Q(d)$, the set of possible prime degrees of cyclic $K$-isogneies of elliptic curves with $\Q$-rational $j$-invariants and without complex multiplication over number fields $K$ of degree $\leq d$, for $d\leq…

Recent work of Burungale-Skinner-Tian-Wan established the first infinite families of quadratic twists of non-CM elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ for which the strong Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer (BSD) conjecture holds. Building on their results,…

In this paper we classify complex K3 surfaces with non-symplectic automorphism of order 8 that leaves invariant a smooth elliptic curve. We show that the rank of the Picard group is either 10, 14 or 18 and the fixed locus is the disjoint…

We review the main conjecture for an elliptic curve on $\Q$ having good supersingular reduction at $p$ and give some consequences of it. Then we define the notion of $\lambda$-invariant and of $\mu$- invariant in this situation,…

The main result of this paper is to extend from $\Q$ to each of the nine imaginary quadratic fields of class number one a result of Serre (1987) and Mestre-Oesterl\'e (1989), namely that if $E$ is an elliptic curve of prime conductor then…

Given a Diophantine triple $\{c_1(t),c_2(t),c_3(t)\}$, the elliptic curve over Q(t) induced by this triple, i.e. $y^2=(c_1(t) x+1) (c_2(t) x+1) (c_3(t) x+1)$, can have as torsion group one of the non-cyclic groups in Mazur's theorem, i.e.…

The aim of this paper is to introduce a new family of elliptic curves in the form of $y^2=x(x-a^2)(x-b^2)$ that have positive ranks. We first generate a list of pythagorean triples $(a,b,c)$ and then construct this family of elliptic…

We make conjectures on the moments of the central values of the family of all elliptic curves and on the moments of the first derivative of the central values of a large family of positive rank curves. In both cases the order of magnitude…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be a semistable elliptic curve such that $\mathrm{ord}_{s=1}L(E,s) = 1$. We prove the $p$-part of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formula for $E/\mathbb{Q}$ for each prime $p \geq 5$ of good reduction such that $E[p]$ is…

We show that the number of copies of ${\Bbb Q}_p/{\Bbb Z}_p$ in the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve $E$ over ${\Bbb Q}$ with complex multipication, is at most $2p - g$, where $g$ is the rank of $E({\Bbb Q})$, and for all…
