We describe all the elliptic fibrations with section on the Kummer surface X of the Jacobian of a very general curve C of genus 2 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, modulo the automorphism group of X and the symmetric…

A covariant functor on the elliptic curves with complex multiplication is constructed. The functor takes values in the noncommutative tori with real multiplication. A conjecture on the rank of an elliptic curve is formulated.

We study how the torsion of elliptic curves over number fields grows upon base change, and in particular prove various necessary conditions for torsion growth. For a number field $F$, we show that for a large set of number fields $L$, whose…

In this manuscript we consider a special complex torus, denoted $S_{\Delta_{2k}}$ (for each $k \in \mathbb{N},\, k \geq 1$) and called the Dirac spinor torus. It is an Abelian variety of complex dimension $2^{k}$ whose covering space is the…

We consider t-structures that naturally arise on elliptic fibrations. By filtering the category of coherent sheaves on an elliptic fibration using the torsion pairs corresponding to these t-structures, we prove results describing…

We prove upper bounds for the average size of the $\ell$-torsion $\text{Cl}_K[\ell]$ of the class group of $K$, as $K$ runs through certain natural families of number fields and $\ell$ is a positive integer. We refine a key argument, used…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G=E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion group. In a previous paper, the authors studied, for a given G, which possible groups G\leq H could appear such that H=E(K)_tors, for [K:Q]=2. In the…

For an elliptic curve A defined over a global function field K of characteristic p>0, the p-Selmer group of the Frobenius twist of A tends to have larger order than that of A. The aim of this note is to discuss this phenomenon.

The strong isomorphism classes of extensions of finite groups are parametrized by orbits of a prescribed action on the second cohomology group. We study these orbits in the case of extensions of a finite abelian $p$-group by a cyclic factor…

Let $n\geq 3$ be an integer and $d$ an odd square-free integer. We shall compute the rank of the $2$-class group of $L_{n,d}:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{2^n},\sqrt{d})$, when all the prime divisors of $d$ are congruent to $\pm 3\pmod 8$ or…

In this paper, we determine the 2-rank of the class group of certain classes of real cyclic quartic number fields. Precisely, we consider the case in which the quadratic subfield is Q(\sqrt{l}) with l=2 or a prime congruent to 1 mod 8.

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 the Gromov-Witten and Donaldson-Thomas correspondence conjectured in [MNOP1, MNOP2], for trivial elliptic fibrations. In particular, we verify the Gromov-Witten and Donaldson-Thomas correspondence for primary fields when the…

We study Mordell-Weil rank jumps on families of jacobians of a pencil of genus-2 curves on a K3 surface defined over a number field k. We exhibit a finite extension l/k over which the subset of fibers for which the rank jumps is infinite.…

Even if there are too many elliptic fibrations to investigate and describe on the singular $K3$ surface $Y_{10}$ of discriminant 72 and belonging to the Ap\'ery-Fermi pencil $(Y_k)$, we find on it many interesting properties. For example…

We compute characteristic numbers of elliptically fibered fourfolds with multisections or non-trivial Mordell-Weil groups. We first consider the models of type E$_{9-d}$ with $d=1,2,3,4$ whose generic fibers are normal elliptic curves of…

Averaging over imaginary quadratic fields, we prove, quantitatively, the equidistribution of CM points associated to 3-torsion classes in the class group. We conjecture that this equidistribution holds for points associated to ideals of any…

We classify the possible torsion structures of rational elliptic curves over quintic number fields. In addition, let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G = E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion subgroup. We study, for a given G,…

We determine explicit generators for the ring of modular forms associated with the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with automorphism group $(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^2$ and of Picard rank 13 and higher. The K3 surfaces in question carry a…

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…
