The Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristics lead one to conjecture that the average size of the $p$-torsion in class groups of $G$-extensions of a number field is finite. In a 2021 paper, Lemke Oliver, Wang, and Wood proved this conjecture in the…
We establish an explicit upper bound B(p,l,m), depending on p,l,m, on the number of conjugacy classes of order p^2 torsion elements u of type <l,m> of the Nottingham group defined over the prime field of characteristic p >0. In the cases…
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…
We determine the average size of the 3-torsion in class groups of $G$-extensions of a number field when $G$ is any transitive $2$-group containing a transposition, for example $D_4$. It follows from the Cohen--Lenstra--Martinet heuristics…
In this work we prove a bound for the torsion in Mordell-Weil groups of smooth elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau 3- and 4-folds. In particular, we show that the set which can occur on a smooth elliptic Calabi-Yau $n$-fold for ($n\geq 3$) is…
In this paper, we construct infinitely many quadruples of real quadratic fields whose class numbers are all divisible by $3$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result towards the divisibility of the class numbers of certain…
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 complete the classification of torsion subgroups $E(K)_{\text{tors}}$ that can occur for an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ over a sextic number field $K$. Previous work determined the complete set of these groups, leaving the existence of…
We give an algorithm to explicitly determine all elements of the $q$-torsion (for $q$ an odd prime) of the Brauer group of an elliptic curve over any base field of characteristic different from $q$, containing a primitive $q$-th root of…
For any number field $K$ with $D_K=|\mathrm{Disc}(K)|$ and any integer $\ell \geq 2$, we improve over the commonly cited trivial bound $|\mathrm{Cl}_K[\ell]| \leq |\mathrm{Cl}_K| \ll_{[K:\mathbb{Q}],\varepsilon} D_K^{1/2+\varepsilon}$ on…
Let $M$ and $N$ be positive integers for which the modular curve $X_1(M,MN)$ has genus $0$, and let $p$ be a prime divisor of $MN$. This article gives asymptotic lower bounds for the average size of the $p$-Selmer group of elliptic curves…
We provide a method for counting number fields of fixed Galois group ordered by arbitrary inertial invariants using analytic techniques from the study of multiple Dirichlet series. We prove unconditional results for infinitely many new…
We present an improved algorithm for tabulating class groups of imaginary quadratic fields of bounded discriminant. Our method uses classical class number formulas involving theta-series to compute the group orders unconditionally for all…
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…
Let $C_{m} : y^{2} = x^{3} - m^{2}x +p^{2}q^{2}$ be a family of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$, where $m$ is a positive integer and $p, q$ are distinct odd primes. We study the torsion part and the rank of $C_m(\mathbb{Q})$. More…
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…
We study the distribution of $2$-torsion in class groups and narrow class groups of cubic fields and cubic orders subject to prescribed shape conditions. The \emph{shape} of a cubic order in a number field is a natural geometric invariant…
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…
We prove upper bounds for the average size of the $\ell$-torsion $\text{Cl}_K[\ell]$ of the class group of $K$, as $K$ runs through certain natural families of number fields and $\ell$ is a positive integer. We refine a key argument, used…
For a prime number $\ell$ and an extension of number fields $K/F$, we prove new lower bounds on the $\ell$-rank of the ideal class group of $K$ based on prime ramification in $K/F$. Unlike related results from the literature, our bound is…
