Bachet elliptic curves are the curves y^2=x^3+a^3 and in this work the group structure E(F_{p}) of these curves over finite fields F_{p} is considered. It is shown that there are two possible structures E(F_{p}){\cong}C_{p+1} or…
Using an Euclidean approach, we prove a new upper bound for the number of closed points of degree 2 on a smooth absolutely irreducible projective algebraic curve defined over the finite field $\mathbb F\_q$.This bound enables us to provide…
In this paper the family of elliptic curves over \Q given by the equation E_{p}: Y^2=(X-p)^3+X^3+(X+p)^3 where p is a prime number, is studied. It is shown that the maximal rank of the elliptic curves is at most 3 and some conditions under…
We establish asymptotic lower bounds for the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with prescribed entanglement of division fields, ordered by naive height. Such elliptic curves are obtained as $1$-parameter families arising from…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field, and let $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$ be an order in $K$ of conductor $f\geq 1$. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with CM by $\mathcal{O}_{K,f}$, such that $E$ is defined by a model over $\mathbb{Q}(j_{K,f})$,…
We show that there are infinitely many elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$, up to isomorphism over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, for which the finitely generated group $E(\mathbb{Q})$ has rank exactly $2$. Our elliptic curves are given by explicit…
Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G = E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion subgroup. We study, for a given G, which possible groups G <= H could appear such that H=E(K)_tors, for [K:Q]=4 and H is one of the possible torsion…
Let $C$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ by the equation $y^2=x^3+Ax+B$ where $A,B\in\mathbb Q$. A sequence of rational points $(x_i,y_i)\in C(\mathbb Q),\,i=1,2,\ldots,$ is said to form a sequence of consecutive squares on $C$…
We study the finiteness of low degree points on certain modular curves and their Atkin--Lehner quotients, and, as an application, prove the modularity of elliptic curves over all but finitely many totally real fields of degree $5$. On the…
Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct odd primes, $p<q$ and $E_{p,q}:y^2=x^3-pqx$ be an elliptic curve. Fix a line $L_{a.b}:y=\frac{a}{b}x$ where $a\in \mathbb{Z},b\in \mathbb{N}$ and $(a,b)=1$. We study sufficient conditions that $p$ and $q$…
Julia Robinson has given a first-order definition of the rational integers Z in the rational numbers Q by a formula (\forall \exists \forall \exists)(F=0) where the \forall-quantifiers run over a total of 8 variables, and where F is a…
We consider the family of elliptic curves $E_{a,b}:y^2=x^3+a(x-b)^2$ with $a,b \in \mathbb{Z}$. These elliptic curves have a rational $3$-isogeny, say $\varphi$. We give an upper and a lower bound on the rank of the $\varphi$-Selmer group…
This paper goes beyond Katz-Sarnak theory on the distribution of curves over finite fields according to their number of rational points, theoretically, experimentally and conjecturally. In particular, we give a formula for the limits of the…
We show that every elliptic curve over a finite field of odd characteristic whose number of rational points is divisible by 4 is isogenous to an elliptic curve in Legendre form, with the sole exception of a minimal respectively maximal…
A fundamental problem in arithmetic geometry is to determine the image of the mod $N$ Galois representation for all elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and integers $N \geq 1$. For a given subgroup $G \le…
In this note we study an analogy between a positive definite quadratic form for elliptic curves over finite fields and a positive definite quadratic form for elliptic curves over the rational number field. A question is posed of which an…
We show that two ordinary isogenous elliptic curves have isomorphic groups of rational points if they have the same $j$-invariant and we extend this result to certain isogenous supersingular elliptic curves, namely those with equal…
We generalise the Siegel-Voloch theorem about S-integral points on elliptic curves as follows: let K/F denote a global function field over a finite field F of characteristic p>3, let S denote a finite set of places of K and let E/K denote a…
