This is an introduction to a probabilistic model for the arithmetic of elliptic curves, a model developed in a series of articles of the author with Bhargava, Kane, Lenstra, Park, Rains, Voight, and Wood. We discuss the theoretical evidence…
Ideal class pairings map the rational points of rank $r\geq 1$ elliptic curves $E/\Q$ to the ideal class groups $\CL(-D)$ of certain imaginary quadratic fields. These pairings imply that $$h(-D) \geq \frac{1}{2}(c(E)-\varepsilon)(\log…
We present a simple and efficient algorithm to compute the sum of the algebraic conjugates of a point on an elliptic curve.
We compute equations for the families of elliptic curves 9-congruent to a given elliptic curve. We use these to find infinitely many non-trivial pairs of 9-congruent elliptic curves over Q, i.e. pairs of non-isogenous elliptic curves over Q…
Several local elliptic coordinates are used to build a new polyelliptic coordinate system which is orthogonal and admits the separation of variables. Such coordinate systems can give the exact solutions of some unsolved problems in quantum…
We present a new certified and complete algorithm to compute arrangements of real planar algebraic curves. Our algorithm provides a geometric-topological analysis of the decomposition of the plane induced by a finite number of algebraic…
Two prominent methods for integer factorization are those based on general integer sieve and elliptic curve. The general integer sieve method can be specialized to quadratic integer sieve method. In this paper, a probability analysis for…
Two new relaxation schemes are proposed for the smoothing step in the geometric multigrid solution of PDEs on 2D and 3D stretched structured grids. The new schemes are characterized by efficient line relaxation on branched sets of lines of…
An isogeny class of elliptic curves over a finite field is determined by a quadratic Weil polynomial. Gekeler has given a product formula, in terms of congruence considerations involving that polynomial, for the size of such an isogeny…
We provide an algorithm for computing an effective basis of homology of elliptic surfaces over the complex projective line on which integration of periods can be carried out. This allows the heuristic recovery of several algebraic…
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 apply classical invariant theory of binary forms to explicitly characterize isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of small genus and, conversely, propose algorithms for reconstructing hyperelliptic models from given invariants. We…
The arithmetic of elliptic curves, namely polynomial addition and scalar multiplication, can be described in terms of global sections of line bundles on $E\times E$ and $E$, respectively, with respect to a given projective embedding of $E$…
Cassels has described a pairing on the 2-Selmer group of an elliptic curve which shares some properties with the Cassels-Tate pairing. In this article, we prove that the two pairings are the same.
It is a classical result (apparently due to Tate) that all elliptic curves with a torsion point of order n ($4 \leq n \leq 10$, or n = 12) lie in a one-parameter family. However, this fact does not appear to have been used ever for…
We present a deterministic algorithm that computes the zeta function of a nonsupersingular elliptic curve E over a finite field with p^n elements in time quasi-quadratic in n. An older algorithm having the same time complexity uses the…
Tate's algorithm tells us that for an elliptic curve $E$ over a local field $K$ of residue characteristic $\geq 5$, $E/K$ has potentially good reduction if and only if $\text{ord}(j_E)\geq 0$. It also tells us that when $E/K$ is semistable…
We study the number of elliptic curves, up to isomorphism, over a fixed quartic field $K$ having a prescribed torsion group $T$ as a subgroup. Let $T=\Z/m\Z \oplus \Z/n\Z$, where $m|n$, be a torsion group such that the modular curve…
Using a quadratic version of the Bott residue theorem, we give a quadratic refinement of the count of twisted cubic curves on hypersurfaces and complete intersections in a projective space.
In this paper, we present efficient algorithms for computing the number of points and the order of the Jacobian group of a superelliptic curve over finite fields of prime order p. Our method employs the Hasse-Weil bounds in conjunction with…
