In 1996, Merel showed there exists a function $B\colon \mathbb{Z}^+\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}^+$ such that for any elliptic curve $E/F$ defined over a number field of degree $d$, one has the torsion group bound $\# E(F)[\textrm{tors}]\leq…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$, the number of torsion points rational over a finite extension $L$ is bounded polynomially in terms of the degree $[L:K]$. We formulate a question suggesting the optimal exponent…

Let $\mathscr{G}_{\rm CM}(d)$ denote the collection of groups (up to isomorphism) that appear as the torsion subgroup of a CM elliptic curve over a degree $d$ number field. We completely determine $\mathscr{G}_{\rm CM}(d)$ for odd integers…

Let E be an elliptic curve having complex multiplication by a given quadratic order of an imaginary quadratic field K. The field of definition of E is the ring class field Omega of the order. If the prime p splits completely in Omega, then…

We show there exist polynomial bounds on torsion of elliptic curves which come from a fixed geometric isogeny class. More precisely, for an elliptic curve $E_0$ defined over a number field $F_0$, for each $\epsilon>0$ there exist constants…

Let $L$ be a number field and let $E/L$ be an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of an imaginary quadratic field $K$. We use class field theory and results of Skorobogatov and Zarhin to…

We give new bounds for the number of integral points on elliptic curves. The method may be said to interpolate between approaches via diophantine techniques ([BP], [HBR]) and methods based on quasiorthogonality in the Mordell-Weil lattice…

We classify the possible torsion structures of rational elliptic curves over sextic number fields.

In a 2008 paper Ellenberg suggested a strategy to improve the known upper bounds for the $\ell$-torsion part of class groups of number fields of fixed degree $d$. Motivated by this he proposed a question about the number of primitive…

We show that for all epsilon > 0, there is a constant C(epsilon) > 0 such that for all elliptic curves E defined over a number field F with j(E) in Q we have #E(F)[tors] \leq C(epsilon)[F:Q]^{5/2+epsilon}. We pursue further bounds on the…

This article is a contribution to the project of classifying the torsion growth of elliptic curve upon base-change. In this article we treat the case of elliptic curve defined over the rationals with complex multiplication. For this…

We present a criterion for proving that certain groups of the form $\mathbb Z/m\mathbb Z\oplus\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z$ do not occur as the torsion subgroup of any elliptic curve over suitable (families of) number fields. We apply this…

Given an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with torsion subgroup $G = E(\mathbb{Q})_{\rm tors}$ we study what groups (up to isomorphism) can occur as the torsion subgroup of $E$ base-extended to $K$, a degree 6 extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We…

Harron and Snowden counted the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ up to height $X$ with torsion group $G$ for each possible torsion group $G$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. In this paper we generalize their result to all number fields and all…

We give a function F(d,n,p) such that if K/Q_p is a degree n field extension and A/K is a d-dimensional abelian variety with potentially good reduction, then #A(K)[tors] is at most F(d,n,p). Separate attention is given to the prime-to-p…

We consider the local-global principle for divisibility in the Mordell-Weil group of a CM elliptic curve defined over a number field. For each prime $p$ we give sharp lower bounds on the degree $d$ of a number field over which there exists…

We study the collection of group structures that can be realized as a group of rational points on an elliptic curve over a finite field (such groups are well known to be of rank at most two). We also study various subsets of this collection…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q. We study the relationship between the torsion subgroup E(Q)_tors and the torsion subgroup E(K)_tors, where K is a cubic number field. In particular, We study the number of cubic number fields K…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ which has multiplicative reduction at a fixed prime $p$. For each positive integer $n$ we put $K_n:=\mathbb{Q}(E[p^n])$. The aim of this paper is to extend the author's previous our results…

Averaging over imaginary quadratic fields, we prove, quantitatively, the equidistribution of CM points associated to 3-torsion classes in the class group. We conjecture that this equidistribution holds for points associated to ideals of any…
