AbstractLet p be a prime and K a number field of degree p. We determine the finiteness of the number of elliptic curves, up to K-isomorphism, having a prescribed property, where this property is either that the curve contains a fixed torsion group as a subgroup or that it has a cyclic isogeny of prescribed degree.

AbstractGiven an abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g$ over a number field $K$, and a prime $\ell $, the ${\ell }^{n} $-torsion points of $A$ give rise to a representation ${\rho }_{A, {\ell }^{n} } : \mathrm{Gal} ( \overline{K} / K)\rightarrow {\mathrm{GL} }_{2g} ( \mathbb{Z} / {\ell }^{n} \mathbb{Z} )$. In particular, we get a mod-$\ell $representation ${\rho }_{A, \ell } : \mathrm{Gal} ( \overline{K} / K)\rightarrow {\mathrm{GL} }_{2g} ({ \mathbb{F} }_{\ell } )$ and an $\ell $-adic representation ${\rho }_{A, {\ell }^{\infty } } : \mathrm{Gal} ( \overline{K} / K)\rightarrow {\mathrm{GL} }_{2g} ({ \mathbb{Z} }_{\ell } )$. In this paper, we describe the possible determinants of subquotients of these two representations. These two lists turn out to be remarkably similar.Applying our results in dimension $g= 1$, we recover a generalized version of a theorem of Momose on isogeny characters of elliptic curves over number fields, and obtain, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, a generalization of Mazur’s bound on rational isogenies of prime degree to number fields.

In this work, we computate the trace form [Formula: see text] associated to a cyclic number field [Formula: see text] of odd prime degree [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] ramified in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] belongs to the ring of integers of [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, we use this trace form to calculate the expression of the center density of algebraic lattices constructed via the Minkowski embedding from some ideals in the ring of integers of [Formula: see text].

AbstractThis paper describes an algorithm of 2-descent for computing the rank of an elliptic curve without 2-torsion, defined over a general number field. This allows one, in practice, to deal with fields of degree from 1 to 5.

Fix a number field [Formula: see text] and a rational prime [Formula: see text]. We consider abelian varieties whose [Formula: see text]-power torsion generates a pro-[Formula: see text] extension of [Formula: see text] which is unramified away from [Formula: see text]. It is a necessary, but not generally sufficient, condition that such varieties have good reduction away from [Formula: see text]. In the special case of [Formula: see text], we demonstrate that for abelian surfaces [Formula: see text], good reduction away from [Formula: see text] does suffice. The result is extended to elliptic curves and abelian surfaces over certain number fields unramified away from [Formula: see text]. An explicit example is constructed to demonstrate that good reduction away from [Formula: see text] is not sufficient, at [Formula: see text], for abelian varieties of sufficiently high dimension.

Coates and Wiles [1] and B. Perrin-Riou (see [2]) study the arithmetic of an elliptic curve E defined over a number field F with complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic field K by using p-adic techniques, which combine the classical descent of Mordell and Weil with ideas of Iwasawa’s theory of Zp-extensions of number fields. In a special case they consider a non-cyclotomic Zp-extension F∞ defined via torsion points of E and a certain Iwasawa module attached to E/F, which can be interpreted as an abelian Galois group of an extension of F∞. We are interested in the corresponding non-abelian Galois group and we want to show that the whole situation is quite analogous to the case of the cyclotomic Zp-extension (which is generated by torsion points of Gm).

In [15] and [16] all possible torsion groups of elliptic curves E with integral j-invariant over quadratic and pure cubic number fields K are determined. Moreover, with the exception of the torsion groups of isomorphism types ℤ/2ℤ, ℤ/3ℤ and ℤ/2ℤ×ℤ/2ℤ, all elliptic curves E and all basic quadratic and pure cubic fields K such that E over K has one of these torsion groups were computed. The present paper is aimed at solving the corresponding problem for general cubic number fields K. In the general cubic case, the above groups ℤ/2ℤ, ℤ/3ℤ and ℤ/2ℤ×ℤ/2ℤ and, in addition, the groups ℤ/4ℤ, ℤ/5ℤ occur as torsion groups of infinitely many curves E with integral j-invariant over infinitely many cubic fields K. For all the other possible torsion groups, the (finitely any) elliptic curves with integral j over the (finitely many) cubic fields K are calculated here. Of course, the results obtained in [6] for pure cubic fields and in [24] for cyclic cubic fields are regained by our algorithms. However, compared with [15] and [6], a solution of the torsion group problem in the much more involved general cubic case requires some essentially new methods. In fact we shall use Gröbner basis techniques and elimination theory to settle the general case.

We study the number of elliptic curves, up to isomorphism, over a fixed quartic field K having a prescribed torsion group T as a subgroup. Let T = ℤ/mℤ⊕ℤ/nℤ, where m|n, be a torsion group such that the modular curve X1(m, n) is an elliptic curve. Let K be a number field such that there is a positive and finite number of elliptic curves E over K having T as a subgroup. We call such pairs (T, K)exceptional. It is known that there are only finitely many exceptional pairs when K varies through all quadratic or cubic fields. We prove that when K varies through all quartic fields, there exist infinitely many exceptional pairs when T = ℤ/14ℤ or ℤ/15ℤ and finitely many otherwise.

We study the behavior under twisting of the Selmer rank parities of a self-dual prime-degree isogeny on a principally polarized abelian variety defined over a number field, subject to compatibility relations between the twists and the isogeny. In particular, we study isogenies on abelian varieties whose Selmer rank parities are related to the rank parities of elliptic curves with [Formula: see text]-invariant 0 or 1728, assuming the Shafarevich–Tate conjecture. Using these results, we show how to classify the conjectural rank parities of all quartic or sextic twists of an elliptic curve defined over a number field, after a finite calculation. This generalizes the previous results of Hadian and Weidner on the behavior of [Formula: see text]-Selmer ranks under [Formula: see text]-twists.

Let Ki be a number field for all i ∈ ℤ>0 and let ℰ be a family of elliptic curves containing infinitely many members defined over Ki for all i. Fix a rational prime p. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of an integer i0 such that, for all i > i0 and all elliptic curve E ∈ ℰ having good reduction at all 𝔭 | p in Ki, we have that E has good ordinary reduction at all primes 𝔭 | p. We illustrate our criteria by applying it to certain Frey curves in [Recipes to Fermat-type equations of the form xr + yr = Czp, to appear in Math. Z.; http://arXiv.org/abs/1203.3371 ] attached to Fermat-type equations of signature (r, r, p).
