In this note we present the main details of the construction of an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(u)$ with torsion $\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z}$ and rank 6. Previously only rank 5 examples for such curves were known.
We describe the possible Mordell-Weil groups for degree 1 elliptic threefold with rational base and constant $j$-invariant. Moreover, we classify all such elliptic threefolds if the $j$-invariant is nonzero. We can use this classification…
In this article, we continue to study the geometry of bisections of certain rational elliptic surfaces. As an application, we give examples of Zariski N + 1-plets of degree 2N + 4 whose irreducible components are an irreducible quartic…
Let X be a K3 surface with an involution g which has non-empty fixed locus X^g and acts non-trivially on a non-zero holomorphic 2-form. We shall construct all such pairs (X, g) in a canonical way, from some better known double coverings of…
We prove that the spaces of rational curves on del Pezzo surfaces are either irreducible or empty, with a unique exception.
We present a database of rational elliptic curves, up to Q-isomorphism, with good reduction outside {2,3,5,7,11,13}. We provide a heuristic involving the abc and BSD conjectures that the database is likely to be the complete set of such…
This version improves the old version entitled "On the modularity of elliptic curves with a residually irreducible representation". Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an abelian totally real field $K$ unramified at 3,5, and 7. We prove that…
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 study the distribution of a subclass congruent elliptic curve $E^{(n)}: y^2=x^3-n^2x$, where $n$ is congruent to $1\pmod 8$ with all prime factors congruent to $1\pmod 4$. We prove an independence of residue symbol property. Consequently…
Let $A,B$ be nonzero rational numbers. Consider the elliptic curve $E_{A,B}/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ with Weierstrass equation $y^2=x^3+At^6+B$. An algorithm to determine $\mathrm{rank } E_{A,B}(\mathbb{Q}(t))$ as a function of $(A,B)$ was presented…
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with Picard number is equal to one and with four log terminal singular points.
Given a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ with large Mordell-Weil rank, we explain how one can build, for suitable small primes $p$, infinitely many fields of degree $p^2-1$ whose ideal class group has a large $p$-torsion…
Let $n>1$ be an integer such that $X_{0}\!\left( n\right) $ has genus $0$, and let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$ or relatively prime to $6n$. In this article, we explicitly classify the isogeny graphs of all rational elliptic curves…
We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…
In this paper, we classify Du Val del Pezzo surfaces of Picard rank one in characteristic two and three. We also show that if a Du Val del Pezzo surface is Frobenius split, then a general anti-canonical member is smooth. Furthermore, in…
We classify equivariantly Gorenstein log del Pezzo surfaces with boundaries at infinity and with finite group actions such that the quotient surface modulo the finite group has Picard number one. We also determine the corresponding finite…
We give a characterization of all del Pezzo surfaces of degree 6 over an arbitrary field $F$. A surface is determined by a pair of separable algebras. These algebras are used to compute the Quillen $K$-theory of the surface. As a…
We determine all genus 2 curves, defined over $\mathbb C$, which have simultaneously degree 2 and 3 elliptic subcovers. The locus of such curves has three irreducible 1-dimensional genus zero components in $\mathcal M_2$. For each component…
We prove that, when all elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ are ordered by naive height, a positive proportion have both algebraic and analytic rank one. It follows that the average rank and the average analytic rank of elliptic curves are…
Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be a semistable elliptic curve such that $\mathrm{ord}_{s=1}L(E,s) = 1$. We prove the $p$-part of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formula for $E/\mathbb{Q}$ for each prime $p \geq 5$ of good reduction such that $E[p]$ is…
