Take a rational elliptic curve defined by the equation $y^2=x^3+ax$ in minimal form and consider the sequence $B_n$ of the denominators of the abscissas of the iterate of a non-torsion point; we show that $B_{5m}$ has a primitive divisor…

We bound the j -invariant of integral points on a modular curve in terms of the congruence group defining the curve. We apply this to prove that the modular curve Xsplit (p3) has no non-trivial rational point if p is a sufficiently large…

We prove that there exist infinitely many elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ with $j$-invariant $1728$ and rank exactly $2$ which are not obtained by base change from $\mathbb{Q}$. The rank of each such curve is determined via 2-isogeny…

Let $L/k$ be a finite abelian extension of an imaginary quadratic number field $k$. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ denote a prime ideal of $\mathcal{O}_k$ lying over the rational prime $p$. We assume that $\mathfrak{p}$ splits completely in $L/k$ and…

For the integer $ D=pq$ of the product of two distinct odd primes, we construct an elliptic curve $E_{2rD}:y^2=x^3-2rDx$ over $\mathbb Q$, where $r$ is a parameter dependent on the classes of $p$ and $q$ modulo 8, and show, under the parity…
