The Mordell-Weil groups $E(\mathbb{Q})$ of elliptic curves influence the structures of their quadratic twists $E_{-D}(\mathbb{Q})$ and the ideal class groups $\mathrm{CL}(-D)$ of imaginary quadratic fields. For appropriate $(u,v) \in…

We show that the distribution of elliptic curves in isogeny classes of curves with a given value of the Frobenius trace $t$ becomes close to uniform even when $t$ is averaged over very short intervals inside the Hasse-Weil interval.

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of odd characteristic and $K= \mathbb{F}_q(t)$. For any integer $d\geq 2$ coprime to $q$, consider the elliptic curve $E_d$ over $K$ defined by $y^2=x(x^2+t^{2d} x-4t^{2d})$. We show that the rank of the…

We describe methods to determine all the possible torsion groups of an elliptic curve that actually appear over a fixed quadratic field. We use these methods to find, for each group that can appear over a quadratic field, the field with the…

In this short note, we shall construct a certain topological family which contains all elliptic curves over Q and, as an application, show that this family provides some geometric interpretations of the Hasse-Weil L-function of an elliptic…

Given a connected graph G with p vertices and q edges, the G-graphicahedron is a vertex-transitive simple abstract polytope of rank q whose edge-graph is isomorphic to a Cayley graph of the symmetric group S_p associated with G. The paper…

We investigate the low-lying zeros in families of $L$-functions attached to quadratic and cubic twists of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$. In particular, we present precise expressions for the expected values of traces of…

We present a fast algorithm that takes as input an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ and an integer $d$ and returns all the number fields $K$ of degree $d'$ dividing $d$ such that $E(K)_{tors}$ contains $E(F)_{tors}$ as a proper…

An $n$-tuple $D=(d(1),\dots,d(n))$ is a \emph{feasible degree sequence} if there is a graph on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that $i$ has degree $d(i)$. Any such graph will have $m=\sum_{i=1}^n d(i)/2$ edges. Letting $G(D)$ be a graph chosen…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ be the maximal abelian extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In this article we classify the groups that can arise as $E(\mathbb{Q}^{ab})_{\text{tors}}$ up to…

The genus g of an F_{q^2}-maximal curve satisfies g=g_1:=q(q-1)/2 or g\le g_2:= [(q-1)^2/4]. Previously, such curves with g=g_1 or g=g_2, q odd, have been characterized up to isomorphism. Here it is shown that an F_{q^2}-maximal curve with…

An $\textit{isometric path}$ is a shortest path between two vertices. An $\textit{isometric path partition}$ (IPP) of a graph $G$ is a set $I$ of vertex-disjoint isometric paths in $G$ that partition the vertices of $G$. The…

A set $S$ of isometric paths of a graph $G$ is ``$v$-rooted'', where $v$ is a vertex of $G$, if $v$ is one of the endpoints of all the isometric paths in $S$. The isometric path complexity of a graph $G$, denoted by $ipco{G}$, is the…

For $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, positive integer $n$, and $d > 0$, let $G(S^n, d)$ be the graph whose vertex set is $S^n$ where any two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are Euclidean distance $d$ apart. The primary question we will…

We investigate the following problem: Given two embeddings G_1 and G_2 of the same abstract graph G on an orientable surface S, decide whether G_1 and G_2 are isotopic; in other words, whether there exists a continuous family of embeddings…

For every n there exists an elliptic curve E over the rational numbers and an n-dimensional subspace V of non-zero rationals modulo squares such that for all v in V, the quadratic twist of E by v has positive rank.

Let F be the cubic field of discriminant -23 and O its ring of integers. Let Gamma be the arithmetic group GL_2 (O), and for any ideal n subset O let Gamma_0 (n) be the congruence subgroup of level n. In a previous paper, two of us (PG and…

It is proved that the rank of an elliptic curve is one less the arithmetic complexity of the corresponding non-commutative torus. As an illustration, we consider a family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.

All the results in this paper are conditional on the Riemann Hypothesis for the L-functions of elliptic curves. Under this assumption, we show that the average analytic rank of all elliptic curves over Q is at most 2, thereby improving a…

Let $p$ be a prime, $E$ be a supersingular elliptic curve defined over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, and $\mathscr{O}$ be its (geometric) endomorphism ring. Earlier results of Chevyrev-Galbraith and Goren-Love have shown that the successive minima…
