We study the structure of the Mordell--Weil group of elliptic curves over number fields of degree 2, 3, and 4. We show that if $T$ is a group, then either the class of all elliptic curves over quadratic fields with torsion subgroup $T$ is…

Let $d\geq 1$ be an integer and let $p$ be a rational prime. Recall that $p$ is a torsion prime of degree $d$ if there exists an elliptic curve $E$ over a degree $d$ number field $K$ such that $E$ has a $K$-rational point of order $p$.…

We study elliptic curves of the form $x^3+y^3=2p$ and $x^3+y^3=2p^2$ where $p$ is any odd prime satisfying $p\equiv 2\bmod 9$ or $p\equiv 5\bmod 9$. We first show that the $3$-part of the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture holds for these…

Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve and $p \geq 3$ a prime. The modular curve $X_E^-(p)$ parametrizes elliptic curves with $p$-torsion modules anti-symplectically isomorphic to $E[p]$. We give a complete classification of when…

Fix a non-square integer $k\neq 0$. We show that the number of curves $E_B:y^2=x^3+kB^2$ containing an integral point, where $B$ ranges over positive integers less than $N$, is bounded by $O_k(N(\log N)^{-\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon})$. In…

Consider the smooth projective models C of curves y^2=f(x) with f(x) in Z[x] monic and separable of degree 2g+1. We prove that for g >= 3, a positive fraction of these have only one rational point, the point at infinity. We prove a lower…

In this paper, we analyze the theta series associated to the quadratic form $Q(\mathbf{x}) := x_1^2 + x_2^2 + x_3^2 + x_4^2$ with congruence conditions on $x_i$ modulo $2, 3, 4$, and $6$. By employing special operators on modular,…

We study rational points on the Erd\H{o}s-Selfridge curves \begin{align*} y^\ell = x(x+1)\cdots (x+k-1), \end{align*} where $k,\ell\geq 2$ are integers. These curves contain "trivial" rational points $(x,y)$ with $y=0$, and a conjecture of…

Let $A,B$ be nonzero rational numbers. Consider the elliptic curve $E_{A,B}/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ with Weierstrass equation $y^2=x^3+At^6+B$. An algorithm to determine $\mathrm{rank } E_{A,B}(\mathbb{Q}(t))$ as a function of $(A,B)$ was presented…

We study an interplay between operator algebras and geometry of rational elliptic curves. Namely, let $\mathcal{O}_B$ be the Cuntz-Krieger algebra given by square matrix $B=(b-1, ~1, ~b-2, ~1)$, where $b$ is an integer greater or equal to…
