We study elliptic curves over quadratic fields with isogenies of certain degrees. Let $n$ be a positive integer such that the modular curve $X_{0}(n)$ is hyperelliptic of genus ${\geqslant}2$ and such that its Jacobian has rank $0$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. We determine all points of $X_{0}(n)$ defined over quadratic fields, and we give a moduli interpretation of these points. We show that, with a finite number of exceptions up to $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-isomorphism, every elliptic curve over a quadratic field $K$ admitting an $n$-isogeny is $d$-isogenous, for some $d\mid n$, to the twist of its Galois conjugate by a quadratic extension $L$ of $K$. We determine $d$ and $L$ explicitly, and we list all exceptions. As a consequence, again with a finite number of exceptions up to $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-isomorphism, all elliptic curves with $n$-isogenies over quadratic fields are in fact $\mathbb{Q}$-curves.

Let k be a quadratic field and E an elliptic curve defined over k. The authors [8, 12, 13] [23] discussed the k-rational points on E of prime power order. For a prime number p, let n = n(k, p) be the least non negative integer such thatfor all elliptic curves E defined over a quadratic field k ([15]).

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.

AbstractConsider an elliptic curve defined over an imaginary quadratic fieldKwith good reduction at the primes abovep≥ 5 and with complex multiplication by the full ring of integersof K. In this paper, we constructp-adic analogues of the Eisenstein-Kronecker series for such an elliptic curve as Coleman functions on the elliptic curve. We then provep-adic analogues of the first and second Kronecker limit formulas by using the distribution relation of the Kronecker theta function.

AbstractLet E be an elliptic curve defined over ℚ, of conductor N and without complex multiplication. For any positive integer l, let ϕl be the Galois representation associated to the l-division points of E. From a celebrated 1972 result of Serre we know that ϕl is surjective for any sufficiently large prime l. In this paper we find conditional and unconditional upper bounds in terms of N for the primes l for which ϕl is not surjective.

AbstractLet E be an elliptic curve over ℚ that has good supersingular reduction at p > 3. We construct what we call the ±/±-Selmer groups of E over the ℤ2p-extension of an imaginary quadratic field K when the prime p splits completely over K/ℚ, and prove that they enjoy a property analogous to Mazur's control theorem.Furthermore, we propose a conjectural connection between the±/±-Selmer groups and Loeffler's two-variable ±/±-p-adic L-functions of elliptic curves.

In our recent papers [3, 4, 5], we defined some new D-invariants for any square-free positive integer D and considered their properties and interrelations among them. Especially, as an application of it, we discussed in [5] the characterization of real quadratic field Q() of so-called Richaud-Degert type in terms of these new D-invariants.

AbstractGiven an elliptic curve E and a positive integer N, we consider the problem of counting the number of primes p for which the reduction of E modulo p possesses exactly N points over 𝔽p. On average (over a family of elliptic curves), we show bounds that are significantly better than what is trivially obtained by the Hasse bound. Under some additional hypotheses, including a conjecture concerning the short-interval distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the average.

AbstractSuppose K is an imaginary quadratic field and E is an elliptic curve over a number field F with complex multiplication by the ring of integers in K. Let p be a rational prime that splits as in K. Let Epn denote the pn-division points on E. Assume that F(Epn) is abelian over K for all n ≥ 0. This paper proves that the Pontrjagin dual of the -Selmer group of E over F(Ep∞) is a finitely generated free Λ-module, where Λ is the Iwasawa algebra of . It also gives a simple formula for the rank of the Pontrjagin dual as a Λ-module.

Coset diagrams for the orbit of the modular group G = 〈x, y: x2 = y3 = 1〉 acting on real quadratic fields give some interesting information. By using these coset diagrams, we show that for a fixed value of n, a non-square positive integer, there are only a finite number of real quadratic irrational numbers of the form , where θ and its algebraic conjugate have different signs, and that part of the coset diagram containing such numbers forms a single circuit (closed path) and it is the only circuit in the orbit of θ.

A result of Bleher, Chinburg, Greenberg, Kakde, Pappas, Sharifi and Taylor has initiated the topic of higher codimension Iwasawa theory. As a generalization of the classical Iwasawa main conjecture, they prove a relationship between analytic objects (a pair of Katz’s $2$ -variable $p$ -adic $L$ -functions) and algebraic objects (two ‘everywhere unramified’ Iwasawa modules) involving codimension two cycles in a $2$ -variable Iwasawa algebra. We prove a result by considering the restriction to an imaginary quadratic field $K$ (where an odd prime $p$ splits) of an elliptic curve $E$ , defined over  $\mathbb{Q}$ , with good supersingular reduction at $p$ . On the analytic side, we consider eight pairs of $2$ -variable $p$ -adic $L$ -functions in this setup (four of the $2$ -variable $p$ -adic $L$ -functions have been constructed by Loeffler and a fifth $2$ -variable $p$ -adic $L$ -function is due to Hida). On the algebraic side, we consider modifications of fine Selmer groups over the $\mathbb{Z}_{p}^{2}$ -extension of $K$ . We also provide numerical evidence, using algorithms of Pollack, towards a pseudonullity conjecture of Coates–Sujatha.
