Let $E$ be a non-CM elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb {Q}$. Fix an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb {Q}}$ of $\mathbb {Q}$. We get a Galois representation \[\rho_E \colon Gal(\overline{\mathbb {Q}}/\mathbb {Q}) \to GL_2(\hat{\mathbb…

Several discrete geometry problems are closely related to the arithmetic theory of elliptic curves defined on the rational fields $\mathbb{Q}$. In this paper we consider the $\theta$-congruent number for $\theta=\frac{\pi}{3}$ and…

In the present paper, we generalize the celebrated classical lemma of Birch and Heegner on quadratic twists of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. We prove the existence of explicit infinite families of quadratic twists with analytic ranks…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote a finite field of order $q$. A rational function $r(x)\in \mathbb{Q}(x)$ is said to be arithmetically exceptional if it induces a permutation on $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_p)$ for infinitely many primes $p$. Based on…

We study the average rank of elliptic curves $E_{A,B} : y^2 = x^3 + Ax + B$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, ordered by the height function $h(E_{A,B}) := \text{max}(|A|, |B|)$. Understanding this average rank requires estimating the number of…

We study an infinite family of Mordell curves (i.e. the elliptic curves in the form y^2=x^3+n, n \in Z) over Q with three explicit integral points. We show that the points are independent in certain cases. We describe how to compute bounds…

In this article, we prove that the average rank of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$, when ordered by height, is less than $1$ (in fact, less than $.885$). As a consequence of our methods, we also prove that at least four fifths of all…

We call an order $O$ in a quadratic field $K$ odd (resp. even) if its discriminant is an odd (resp. even) integer. We call an elliptic curve $E$ over the field $C$ of complex numbers with CM odd (resp. even) if its endomorphism ring…

Consider a Mordell curve $E_a:y^2=x^3+a$ with $a \in \mathbb Z$. These curves have a rational $3$-isogeny, say $\varphi$. We give an upper and a lower bound on the rank of the $\varphi$-Selmer group of $E_a$ over $\mathbb Q(\zeta_3)$ in…

The Shafarevich-Tate and Selmer groups arise in the context of Kummer theory for elliptic curves. The finiteness of the Shafarevich-Tate group of an elliptic curve $E$ over the field of rational numbers is included in the Birch and…

A rational perfect cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped whose edges and face diagonals are given by rational numbers and whose space diagonal is equal to unity. Recently it was shown that the Diophantine equations describing such a cuboid…

We show that the average and typical ranks in a certain parametric family of elliptic curves described by D. Ulmer tend to infinity as the parameter $d \to\infty$. This is perhaps unexpected since by a result of A. Brumer, the average rank…

We present experimental evidence to support the widely held belief that one half of all elliptic curves have infinitely many rational points. The method used to gather this evidence is a refinement of an algorithm due to the author which is…

Let $k$ be a finite field and $L$ be the function field of a curve $C/k$ of genus $g\geq 1$. In the first part of this note, we show that the number of separable $S$-integral points on a constant elliptic curve $E/L$ is bounded solely in…

Let $G$ be a commutative connected algebraic group over a number field $K$, let $A$ be a finitely generated and torsion-free subgroup of $G(K)$ of rank $r>0$ and, for $n>1$, let $K(n^{-1}A)$ be the smallest extension of $K$ inside an…

A theorem of Serre states that almost all plane conics over $\mathbb{Q}$ have no rational point. We prove an analogue of this for families of conics parametrised by elliptic curves using elliptic divisibility sequences and a version of the…

Extending the idea of \cite{dab2} and using the 2-descent method, we provide three general families of elliptic curves over Q such that a positive proportion of prime-twists of such elliptic curves have rank zero simultaneously.

Let $\ell$ and $p \geq 3$ be different primes. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_\ell$ and $E'/\mathbb{Q}_\ell$ be elliptic curves with isomorphic $p$-torsion. Assume that $E$ has potentially multiplicative reduction. We classify when all…

We prove non-vanishing theorems for the central values of $L$-series of quadratic twists of the Gross elliptic curve with complex multiplication by the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is any prime congruent to…

We study the distribution of ranks of elliptic curves in quadratic twist families using Iwasawa-theoretic methods, contributing to the understanding of Goldfeld's conjecture. Given an elliptic curve $ E/\mathbb{Q} $ with good ordinary…
