We prove that all elliptic curves defined over totally real cubic fields are modular. This builds on previous work of Freitas, Le Hung and Siksek, who proved modularity of elliptic curves over real quadratic fields, as well as recent…

Let $E$ be a nonisotrivial elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ and denote the rank of the abelian group $E(\mathbb{Q}(T))$ by $r$. For all but finitely many $t\in \mathbb{Q}$, specialization will give an elliptic curve $E_t$ over…

We introduce the notion of tropical curves of hyperelliptic type. These are tropical curves whose Jacobian is isomorphic to that of a hyperelliptic tropical curve, as polarized tropical abelian varieties. We show that this property depends…

It is known for a long time that a nonsingular real algebraic curve of degree 2k in the projective plane cannot have more than 7/2*k^2-9/4*k+3/2$ even ovals. We show here that this upper bound is asymptotically sharp, that is to say we…

A conditional bound is given for the average analytic rank of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field. In particular, under the assumptions that all elliptic curves over a number field $K$ are modular and have $L$-functions which…

Let $E/\bbq$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\bbq$ with conductor $N$ and $\gq$ the absolute Galois group of an algebraic closure $\bar{\bbq}$ of $\bbq$. We prove that for every $\sigma\in \gq$, the Mordell-Weil group $E(\oqs)$ of $E$…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\rho_E\colon {\rm Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})\to {\rm GL}(2,\widehat{ \mathbb{Z} })$ be the adelic representation associated to the natural action of Galois on the…

Let $E/k$ be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over a global function field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$, and $G\subset \mathrm{Gal}(k^{\mathrm{sep}}/k)$ be a topologically finitely generated subgroup. We prove that if $E/k$ has analytic rank…

We determine, for an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$, all the possible torsion groups $E(K)_{tors}$, where $K$ is the compositum of all $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$. Furthermore, we prove that for an elliptic curve…

We unconditionally determine $I_\Q(d)$, the set of possible prime degrees of cyclic $K$-isogneies of elliptic curves with $\Q$-rational $j$-invariants and without complex multiplication over number fields $K$ of degree $\leq d$, for $d\leq…

We prove that for every field k and every positive integer n, there exists an absolutely simple n-dimensional abelian variety over k. We also prove an asymptotic result for finite fields: For every finite field k and positive integer n, we…

Let $A/\mathbb{Q}$ be an abelian variety of dimension $g\geq 1$ that is isogenous over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ to $E^g$, where $E$ is an elliptic curve. If $E$ does not have complex multiplication (CM), by results of Ribet and Elkies…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of odd characteristic $p$. We exhibit elliptic curves over the rational function field $K = \mathbb{F}_q(t)$ whose Tate-Shafarevich groups are large. More precisely, we consider certain infinite…

Let $p$ be a prime and $K$ a number field of degree $p$. We count the number of elliptic curves, up to $\bar{K}$-isomorphism, having a prescribed property, where this property is either that the curve contains a fixed torsion group as a…

We generalize the lemmas of Thomas Kretschmer to arbitrary number fields, and apply them with a 2-descent argument to obtain bounds for families of elliptic curves over certain imaginary quadratic number fields with class number 1. One such…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a Riemann surface of genus $g>0$ defined over a number field $K$ which is a degree $d$-covering of $\mathbb{P}^1_K$. In this paper we show the existence of infinitely many linearly disjoint degree $d$-extensions $L/K$…

In this paper, we present details of seven elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}(u)$ with rank $2$ and torsion group $\mathbb{Z}/ 8\mathbb{Z}$ and five curves over $\mathbb{Q}(u)$ with rank $2$ and torsion group $\mathbb{Z}/ 2\mathbb{Z} \times…

If $V$ is an irreducible algebraic variety over a number field $K$, and $L$ is a field containing $K$, we say that $V$ is diophantine-stable for $L/K$ if $V(L) = V(K)$. We prove that if $V$ is either a simple abelian variety, or a curve of…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$, $E/K$ be an elliptic curve, and $\phi:A\to E^m$ be an isogeny defined over $K$. Let $P\in A(K)$ be such that $\phi(P)=(Q_1,\dots, Q_m)$ with $\text{Rank}_\mathbb{Z}(\langle…
