Motivated in part by combinatorial applications to certain sum-product phenomena, we introduce unimodular graphs over finite fields and, more generally, over finite valuation rings. We compute the spectrum of the unimodular graphs, by using…
Loops and cycles play an important role in computing endomorphism rings of supersingular elliptic curves and related cryptosystems. For a supersingular elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$, if an imaginary quadratic order $O$…
Using Galois representations, we analyze fields of definition of cyclic isogenies on elliptic curves to prove the following uniformity result: for any number field $F$ which has no rational CM, under GRH there exists an effectively…
A part of Grothendieck's program for studying the Galois group $G_{\mathbb Q}$ of the field of all algebraic numbers $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ emerged from his insight that one should lift its action upon $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ to the action…
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…
In this paper, we determine all tetraelliptic modular curves $X_1(N)$ over $\mathbb Q$, and find some tetraelliptic maps $\phi_N$ from $X_1(N)$ to elliptic curves for those tetraelliptic $X_1(N)$. Also we will construct $\phi_N$ explicitly…
Let $r>2$ and $\ell$ be primes. In this paper we study the mod $\ell$ Galois representations attached to curves of the form $y^r = f(x)$ where $f$ is monic and has coefficients belonging to the $r$-th cyclotomic field. We provide conditions…
In this paper we present algorithms for computing the topology of planar and space rational curves defined by a parametrization. The algorithms given here work directly with the parametrization of the curve, and do not require to compute or…
We study this subject by first proving that the p-primary subgroup of the classical Selmer group for an elliptic curve with good, ordinary reduction at a prime p has a very simple and elegant description which involves just the Galois…
Given an elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ which has potential complex multiplication by the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ we construct a polynomial $P_E \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]$ which is a…
Let $E$ be a non-CM elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb {Q}$. Fix an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb {Q}}$ of $\mathbb {Q}$. We get a Galois representation \[\rho_E \colon Gal(\overline{\mathbb {Q}}/\mathbb {Q}) \to GL_2(\hat{\mathbb…
Schoof's classic algorithm allows point-counting for elliptic curves over finite fields in polynomial time. This algorithm was subsequently improved by Atkin, using factorizations of modular polynomials, and by Elkies, using a theory of…
We describe deterministic and probabilistic algorithms to determine whether or not a given monic irreducible polynomial H in Z[X] is a Hilbert class polynomial, and if so, which one. These algorithms can be used to determine whether a given…
The modular curves in the family $X_1(N)$ for natural numbers $N$ parametrize elliptic curves over the complex numbers with a distinguished point of order $N$. The purpose of this paper is to better understand how to calculate the degrees…
The theories of hypergeometric functions and modular forms are highly intertwined. For example, particular values of truncated hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric character sums are often congruent or equal to Fourier coefficients…
The present paper illustrates the utility of Brauer relations, Galois covers of curves and the theory of regulator constants in the context of studying isogenies between Jacobians and their relevance to the parity conjecture. This framework…
We characterise modulation spaces by suitable Wiener estimates on the short-time Fourier transforms of the involved functions and distributions. We use the results to refine some formulae on periodic distributions with Lebesgue estimates on…
We prove modularity of some two dimensional, 2-adic Galois representations over totally real fields that are nearly ordinary and that are residually dihedral. We do this by employing the strategy of Skinner and Wiles, using Hida families,…
The problem of computing an explicit isogeny between two given elliptic curves over F_q, originally motivated by point counting, has recently awaken new interest in the cryptology community thanks to the works of Teske and Rostovstev &…
We find a tight relationship between the torsion subgroup and the image of the mod 2 Galois representation associated to an elliptic curve defined over the rationals. This is shown using some characterizations for the squareness of the…
