Abstract We investigate the number of curves having a rational point of almost minimal height in the family of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve. This problem takes its origin in the work of Hooley, who asked this question in the setting of real quadratic fields. In particular, he showed an asymptotic estimate for the number of such fields with almost minimal fundamental unit. Our main result establishes the analogue asymptotic formula in the setting of quadratic twists of a fixed elliptic curve.

AbstractWe study the distribution of 2-Selmer ranks in the family of quadratic twists of an elliptic curve $\def \xmlpi #1{}\def \mathsfbi #1{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {#1}}}\let \le =\leqslant \let \leq =\leqslant \let \ge =\geqslant \let \geq =\geqslant \def \Pr {\mathit {Pr}}\def \Fr {\mathit {Fr}}\def \Rey {\mathit {Re}}E$ over an arbitrary number field $K$. Under the assumption that ${\rm Gal}(K(E[2])/K) \ {\cong }\ S_3$, we show that the density (counted in a nonstandard way) of twists with Selmer rank $r$ exists for all positive integers $r$, and is given via an equilibrium distribution, depending only on a single parameter (the ‘disparity’), of a certain Markov process that is itself independent of $E$ and $K$. More generally, our results also apply to $p$-Selmer ranks of twists of two-dimensional self-dual ${\bf F}_p$-representations of the absolute Galois group of $K$ by characters of order $p$.

Given an elliptic curve$E$over$\mathbb{Q}$, a celebrated conjecture of Goldfeld asserts that a positive proportion of its quadratic twists should have analytic rank 0 (respectively 1). We show that this conjecture holds whenever$E$has a rational 3-isogeny. We also prove the analogous result for the sextic twists of$j$-invariant 0 curves. For a more general elliptic curve$E$, we show that the number of quadratic twists of$E$up to twisting discriminant$X$of analytic rank 0 (respectively 1) is$\gg X/\log ^{5/6}X$, improving the current best general bound toward Goldfeld’s conjecture due to Ono–Skinner (respectively Perelli–Pomykala). To prove these results, we establish a congruence formula between$p$-adic logarithms of Heegner points and apply it in the special cases$p=3$and$p=2$to construct the desired twists explicitly. As a by-product, we also prove the corresponding$p$-part of the Birch and Swinnerton–Dyer conjecture for these explicit twists.

AbstractGeometric intuition suggests that the Néron–Tate height of Heegner points on a rational elliptic curve E should be asymptotically governed by the degree of its modular parametrisation. In this paper, we show that this geometric intuition asymptotically holds on average over a subset of discriminants. We also study the asymptotic behaviour of traces of Heegner points on average over a subset of discriminants and find a difference according to the rank of the elliptic curve. By the Gross–Zagier formulae, such heights are related to the special value at the critical point for either the derivative of the Rankin–Selberg convolution of E with a certain weight one theta series attached to the principal ideal class of an imaginary quadratic field or the twisted L-function of E by a quadratic Dirichlet character. Asymptotic formulae for the first moments associated with these L-series and L-functions are proved, and experimental results are discussed. The appendix contains some conjectural applications of our results to the problem of the discretisation of odd quadratic twists of elliptic curves.

AbstractWe study infinite families of quadratic and cubic twists of the elliptic curveE=X0(27). For the family of quadratic twists, we establish a lower bound for the 2-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the value of the complexL-series ats=1, and, for the family of cubic twists, we establish a lower bound for the 3-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the sameL-value. We show that our lower bounds are precisely those predicted by the celebrated conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer.

<abstract><p>The crucial step in elliptic curve scalar multiplication based on scalar decompositions using efficient endomorphisms—such as GLV, GLS or GLV+GLS—is to produce a short basis of a lattice involving the eigenvalues of the endomorphisms, which usually is obtained by lattice basis reduction algorithms or even more specialized algorithms. Recently, lattice basis reduction is found to be unnecessary. Benjamin Smith (AMS 2015) was able to immediately write down a short basis of the lattice for the GLV, GLS, GLV+GLS of quadratic twists using elementary facts about quadratic rings. Certainly it is always more convenient to use a ready-made short basis than to compute a new one by some algorithm. In this paper, we extend Smith's method on GLV+GLS for quadratic twists to quartic and sextic twists, and give ready-made short bases for $ 4 $-dimensional decompositions on these high degree twisted curves. In particular, our method gives a unified short basis compared with Hu et al.'s method (DCC 2012) for $ 4 $-dimensional decompositions on sextic twisted curves.</p></abstract>

Let [Formula: see text] be an elliptic curve defined over a number field [Formula: see text]. Suppose that [Formula: see text] has complex multiplication over [Formula: see text], i.e. [Formula: see text] is an imaginary quadratic field. With the aid of CM theory, we find elliptic curves whose quadratic twists have a constant root number.
