In this paper, we study certain Kummer characters arising from the pro-$p$ geometric fundamental groups of CM elliptic curves minus their origins (once-punctured CM elliptic curves). These characters may be regarded as analogues of the…
If $E$ is an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$, then it follows from work of Serre and Hooley that, under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the density of primes $p$ such that the group of $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points…
Let $p\ge5$ be a prime number. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ such that $p$ is inert in $K$ and that $E$ has good reduction at $p$. Let $K_\infty$ be the…
We give explicit uniform bounds for several quantities relevant to the study of Galois representations attached to elliptic curves $E/\mathbb Q$. We consider in particular the subgroup of scalars in the image of Galois, the first Galois…
We study a graded Lie algebra arising from the Galois action on the pro-$p$ fundamental group of a once-punctured elliptic curve with complex multiplication. Among other things, we provide a minimal generating set of the rationalized Lie…
In this paper, we study the $p$-Selmer groups in the family of $p$-twists of an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$. We prove that if $E/K$ is an elliptic curve over a number field $K$, and if $d$ is congruent to the dimension of the…
The Coleman-Ihara formula expresses Soule's $p$-adic characters restricted to $p$-local Galois group as the Coates-Wiles homomorphism multiplied by $p$-adic $L$-values at positive integers. In this paper, we show an analogous formula that…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over a finite field $k$, and $\ell$ a prime number different from the characteristic of $k$. In this paper we consider the problem of finding the structure of the Tate module $T_\ell(E)$ as an integral Galois…
In the study of the arithmetic structure of elliptic modular groups which are the fundamental groups of compactified modular curves, these truncated group algebras and their direct sums are considered to construct elliptic modular motives.…
We propose a conjecture extending the classical construction of elliptic units to complex cubic number fields $K$. The conjecture concerns special values of the elliptic gamma function, a holomorphic function of three complex variables…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$, and $P \in E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ be an $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational point. We obtain nontrivial estimates for multiplicative character sums associated with the division polynomials…
We relate the cardinality of the $p$-primary part of the Bloch-Kato Selmer group over $\mathbb{Q}$ attached to a modular form at a non-ordinary prime $p$ to the constant term of the characteristic power series of the signed Selmer groups…
We connect the sixth power moment of Kloosterman sums to elliptic curves. This yields an elementary proof that $K_u$ with $p\nmid u$ are $O(p^{2/3})$.
Let $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=p$ be a prime number and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. We determine the all possibilities for $E(K)_{tors}$. We obtain these results by studying Galois representations of $E$ and of it's…
We prove the following special case of Mazur's conjecture on the topology of rational points. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $j$-invariant $1728$. For a class of elliptic pencils which are quadratic twists of $E$ by…
Given an elliptic curve E over a number field k, the Galois action on the torsion points of E induces a Galois representation, \rho_E : Gal(\bar{k}/k) \to GL_2(\hat{Z}). For a fixed number field k, we describe the image of \rho_E for a…
The goal of this article is to give an explicit classification of the possible $p$-adic Galois representations that are attached to elliptic curves $E$ with CM defined over $\mathbb{Q}(j(E))$. More precisely, let $K$ be an imaginary…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbf{Q}$ without complex multiplication. For each prime $\ell$, there is a representation $\rho_{E,\ell}\colon \text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbf{Q}}/\mathbf{Q}) \to \text{GL}_2(\mathbf{F}_{\ell})$…
We present normal forms for elliptic curves over a field of characteristic $2$ analogous to Edwards normal form, and determine bases of addition laws, which provide strikingly simple expressions for the group law. We deduce efficient…
We study Galois action on $\Ext^1(E(\bar \Q),\Z^2)$ and interpret our results as partially showing that the notion of a path on a complex elliptic curve $E$ can be characterised algebraically. The proofs show that our results are just…
