We provide explicit bounds on the difference of heights of the [Formula: see text]-invariants of isogenous elliptic curves defined over [Formula: see text]. The first one is reminiscent of a classical estimate for the Faltings height of isogenous abelian varieties, which is indeed used in the proof. We also use an explicit version of Silverman’s inequality and isogeny estimates by Gaudron and Rémond. We give applications in the study of Vélu’s formulas and of modular polynomials.

In this paper we study the variation of the $p$-Selmer rank parities of $p$-twists of a principally polarized Abelian variety over an arbitrary number field $K$ and show, under certain assumptions, that this parity is periodic with an explicit period. Our result applies in particular to principally polarized Abelian varieties with full $K$-rational $p$-torsion subgroup, arbitrary elliptic curves, and Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves. Assuming the Shafarevich–Tate conjecture, our result allows one to classify the rank parities of all quadratic twists of an elliptic or hyperelliptic curve after a finite calculation.

AbstractThe theory of isogeny estimates for Abelian varieties provides ‘additive bounds’ of the form ‘d is at most B’ for the degrees d of certain isogenies. We investigate whether these can be improved to ‘multiplicative bounds’ of the form ‘d divides B’. We find that in general the answer is no (Theorem 1), but that sometimes the answer is yes (Theorem 2). Further we apply the affirmative result to the study of exceptional primes ℒ in connexion with modular Galois representations coming from elliptic curves: we prove that the additive bounds for ℒ of Masser and Wüstholz (1993) can be improved to multiplicative bounds (Theorem 3).

For a field of definition [Formula: see text] of an abelian variety [Formula: see text] and prime ideal [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] which is of a good reduction for [Formula: see text], the structure of [Formula: see text] as abelian group is: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. We are interested in finding an asymptotic formula for the number of prime ideals [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] has a good reduction at [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. We succeed in proving this under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Unconditionally, we achieve a short range asymptotic for abelian varieties of CM type, and the full cyclicity theorem for elliptic curves over a number field containing the CM field.

AbstractThis paper presents a new probabilistic algorithm to compute modular polynomials modulo a prime. Modular polynomials parameterize pairs of isogenous elliptic curves, and are useful in many aspects of computational number theory and cryptography. The algorithm presented here has the distinguishing feature that it does not involve the computation of Fourier coefficients of modular forms. The need to compute the exponentially large integral coefficients is avoided by working directly modulo a prime, and computing isogenies between elliptic curves via Vélu's formulas.
