We present seven theorems on the structure of prime order torsion points on CM elliptic curves defined over number fields. The first three results refine bounds of Silverberg and Prasad-Yogananda by taking into account the class number of…
We study torsion subgroups of elliptic curves with complex multiplication (CM) defined over number fields which admit a real embedding. We give a complete classification of the groups which arise up to isomorphism as the torsion subgroup of…
We prove several results on torsion points and Galois representations for complex multiplication (CM) elliptic curves over a number field containing the CM field. One result computes the degree in which such an elliptic curve has a rational…
For a prime number p, we characterize the groups that may arise as torsion subgroups of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication defined over a number field of degree 2p. In particular, our work shows that a classification in the…
In this paper, we study the finiteness problem of torsion points on an elliptic curve whose coordinates satisfy some multiplicative dependence relations. In particular, we prove that on an elliptic curve defined over a number field there…
By reformulating and extending results of Elkies, we prove some results on $\mathbb Q$-curves over number fields of odd degree. We show that, over such fields, the only prime isogeny degrees~$\ell$ which an elliptic curve without CM may…
We formulate the notion of \emph{typical boundedness} of torsion on a family of abelian varieties defined over number fields. This means that the torsion subgroups of elements in the family can be made uniformly bounded by removing from the…
Let $p$ be a prime and $K$ a number field of degree $p$. We count the number of elliptic curves, up to $\bar{K}$-isomorphism, having a prescribed property, where this property is either that the curve contains a fixed torsion group as a…
We determine the set $S(d)$ of possible prime orders of $K$-rational points on elliptic curves over number fields $K$ of degree $d$, for $d = 4$, $5$, $6$, and $7$.
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…
We give an effective form of the theorem of Mazur-Kamienny-Merel on the torsion of elliptic curves over number fields.
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over a number field $k$ of degree $d$ that admits a $k$-rational isogeny of prime degree $p$. We study the question of finding a uniform bound on $p$ that depends only on $d$, and obtain, under a certain…
In this paper we give a detailed proof of a result we announced a year ago. This result is an effective version of the theorem of Mazur-Kamienny-Merel concerning uniform bounds for rational torsion points on elliptic curves over number…
Let $T_{{\rm CM}}(d)$ be the largest size of the torsion subgroup of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication (CM) defined over a degree $d$ number field. Work of Breuer and Clark--Pollack showed $\limsup_{d \to \infty} \frac{T_{{\rm…
The list of all groups that can appear as torsion subgroups of elliptic curves over number fields of degree $d$, $d=4,5,6$, is not completely determined. However, the list of groups $\Phi^{\infty}(d)$, $d=4,5,6$, that can be realized as…
We give the complete list of possible torsion subgroups of elliptic curves with complex multiplication over number fields of degree 1-13. Additionally we describe the algorithm used to compute these torsion subgroups and its implementation.
Mordell curves over a number field $K$ are elliptic curves of the form $ y^2 = x^3 + c$, where $c \in K \setminus \{ 0 \}$. Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime number, $K$ a number field such that $[K:\mathbb{Q}] \in \{ 2p, 3p \}$ and let $E$ be a…
Let $d\geq 1$ be an integer and let $p$ be a rational prime. Recall that $p$ is a torsion prime of degree $d$ if there exists an elliptic curve $E$ over a degree $d$ number field $K$ such that $E$ has a $K$-rational point of order $p$.…
This paper focuses on the proof of Serge Lang's Heights Conjecture in a form that is completely effective. As a complementary result the author provides a new proof of Mazur-Merel theorem about a bound for the torsion of elliptic curves in…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field F. For a prime number $\ell$, we consider the field extension of F generated by the $\ell$-powered torsion points of A. According to a conjecture made by Rasmussen and Tamagawa, if we…
