In this paper, we study the algebraic rank and the analytic rank of the Jacobian of hyperelliptic curves $y^2 = x^5 + m^2$ for integers $m$. Namely, we first provide a condition on $m$ that gives a bound of the size of Selmer group and then…

We provide a new upper bound on the number of conjugacy classes in the group $U_n(q)$ of unitriangular matrices over a finite field. We also compute a similar upper bound for every group in the lower central series of $U_n(q)$.

Using an explicit version of Selberg's upper sieve, we obtain explicit upper bounds for the number of $n\leq x$ such that a non-empty set of irreducible polynomials $F_i(n)$ with integer coefficients are simultaneously prime; this set can…

For any large prime $q$, $1 \leq x \leq q$ and any real $0 \leq k \leq 1$, we prove an upper bound for the following $2k$-th moment $$\displaystyle \sum_{\substack{\chi \bmod q}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)\lambda(n)\Big|^{2k},$$ where…

We study Mordell-Weil rank jumps on families of jacobians of a pencil of genus-2 curves on a K3 surface defined over a number field k. We exhibit a finite extension l/k over which the subset of fibers for which the rank jumps is infinite.…

We present a method for computing the Mordell-Weil rank of the jacobian of a curve of genus 2 with multiplication by a square root of 2, based on descent via isogenies of degree 2, and apply it to a family of curves.

In this paper, we give an explicit bound for the height of integral points on $X_0(p)$ by using a very explicit version of the Chevalley-Weil principle. We improve the bound given by Sha in \cite{sha2014bounding1}.

We explain how one can efficiently determine the (finite) set of rational points on a curve of genus 2 over $\mathbb Q$ with Jacobian variety $J$, given a point $P \in J(\mathbb Q)$ generating a subgroup of finite index in $J(\mathbb Q)$.

We show that there is a bound depending only on g and [K:Q] for the number of K-rational points on a hyperelliptic curve C of genus g over a number field K such that the Mordell-Weil rank r of its Jacobian is at most g-3. If K = Q, an…

Let $q$ be a prime with $q \geq 5$. We show that the average rank of elliptic curves over a function field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(t)$, when ordered by naive height, is bounded above by $25/14 \approx 1.8$. Our result improves the previous upper…

We study the family of elliptic curves $y^2=x(x-a^2)(x-b^2)$ parametrized by Pythagorean triples $(a,b,c)$. We prove that for a generic triple the lower bound of the rank of the Mordell-Weil group over $\mathbb{Q}$ is 1, and for some…
