Let $E$ be an elliptic curve described by either an Edwards model or a twisted Edwards model over $\mathbb{F}_p$, namely, $E$ is defined by one of the following equations $x^2+y^2=a^2(1+x^2y^2),\, a^5-a\not\equiv 0$ mod $p$, or,…

For a fixed graph property $\Phi$ and integer $k \geq 1$, consider the problem of counting the induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $\Phi$ in an input graph $G$. This problem can be solved by brute-force in time $O(n^{k})$. Under ETH, we…

For $E/K$ an elliptic curve without complex multiplication we bound the index of the image of $\operatorname{Gal}(\bar{K}/K)$ in $\operatorname{GL}_2(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$, the representation being given by the action on the Tate modules of…

Let $p, q$ be twin prime numbers with $q-p=2$ . Consider the elliptic curves E=E_\sigma: y^2 = x (x+\sigma p)(x+\sigma q) . (\sigma =\pm 1). E=E_\sigma is also denoted as E_+ or E_- when \sigma = +1or $-1.Here the Mordell-Weil group and the…

Consider a non-CM elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. For each prime $\ell$, there is a representation $\rho_{E,\ell}: G \to GL_2(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ that describes the Galois action on the $\ell$-torsion points of $E$, where $G$ is…

This paper tightens the best known analysis of Hein's 1989 algorithm to infer the topology of a weighted tree based on the lengths of paths between its leaves. It shows that the number of length queries required for a degree-$k$ tree of $n$…

Currently, the best upper bounds on the number of rational points on an absolutely irreducible, smooth, projective algebraic curve of genus g defined over a finite field F_q come either from Serre's refinement of the Weil bound if the genus…

By considering a one-parameter family of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, we might ask ourselves if there is any bias in the distribution (or parity) of the root numbers at each specialization. From the work of Helfgott, we know…

Elkies proved the infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves over real number fields. We generalize Elkies' result to some abelian fourfolds in Mumford's families, and more generally, to certain families of Kuga-Satake abelian…

For a fixed number field and an elliptic curve defined and semi-stable over this number field, we consider the set of prime numbers p such that the Galois representation attached to the p-torsion points of the elliptic curve is reducible.…

We establish an explicit bound for the least prime occurring in the Chebotarev density theorem without any restriction. Let $L/K$ be any Galois extension of number fields such that $L\not=\mathbb{Q}$, and let $C$ be a conjugacy class in the…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over rational field $\mathbb{Q}$ and $N$ be a positive integer. Now, $M_E(N)$ denotes the number of primes $p$, such that the group $E_p(\mathbb{F}_p)$ is of order $N$. We show that $M_E(N)$ follows…

For certain elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with $E(\mathbb{Q})[2]=\mathbb{Z}/2 \mathbb{Z}$, we prove a criterion for prime twists of $E$ to have analytic rank 0 or 1, based on a mod 4 congruence of 2-adic logarithms of Heegner points. As an…

Watkins's conjecture suggests that for an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$, the rank of the group $E(\mathbb{Q})$ of rational points is bounded above by $\nu_2 (m_E)$, where $m_E$ is the modular degree associated with $E$. It is known that…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $k$ and $\ell$ a prime integer. When $E$ has at least one $k$-rational point of exact order $\ell$, we derive a uniform upper bound $\exp(C \log B / \log \log B)$ for the number of…

Let $\mathcal C_Q$ be the cyclic group of order $Q$, $n$ a divisor of $Q$ and $r$ a divisor of $Q/n$. We introduce the set of $(r,n)$-free elements of $\mathcal C_Q$ and derive a lower bound for the the number of elements $\theta \in…

We give a large sieve type inequality for functions supported on primes. As application we prove a conjecture by Elliott, and give bounds for short character sums over primes. The proves uses a combination of the large sieve and the Selberg…

In 1988, Koblitz conjectured the infinitude of primes p for which |E(F_p)| is prime for elliptic curves E over Q, drawing an analogy with the twin prime conjecture. He also proposed studying the primality of |E(F_{p^l})| / |E(F_p)|, in…
