AbstractLet be a curve of genus at least 2 embedded in E1 × … × EN, where the Ei are elliptic curves for i = 1, . . . , N. In this article we give an explicit sharp bound for the Néron–Tate height of the points of contained in the union of all algebraic subgroups of dimension < max(), where is the minimal dimension of a translate (resp. of a torsion variety) containing .As a corollary, we give an explicit bound for the height of the rational points of special curves, proving new cases of the explicit Mordell Conjecture and in particular making explicit (and slightly more general in the CM case) the Manin–Dem’janenko method for curves in products of elliptic curves.

The purpose of this article is to construct families of elliptic curves E over finite fields F so that the groups of F-rational points of E are cyclic, by using a representation of the modular invariant function by a generator of a modular function field associated with the modular group Γ0(N), where N = 5, 7 or 13.

AbstractWe prove that the group of rational points of a non-isotrivial elliptic curve defined over the perfect closure of a function field in positive characteristic is finitely generated.

In the modern theory of elliptic curves, one of the important problems is the determination of the number of rational points on an elliptic curve. The Mordel–Weil theorem [T. Shioda, On the Mordell–Weil lattices, Comment. Math. University St. Paul. 39(2) (1990) 211–240] points out that the elliptic curve defined above the rational points is generated by a finite group. Despite the knowledge that an elliptic curve has a final number of rational points, it is still difficult to determine their number and the way how to determine them. The greatest progress was achieved by Birch and Swinnerton–Dyer conjecture, which was included in the Millennium Prize Problems [A. Wiles, The Birch and Swinnerton–Dyer conjecture, The Millennium Prize Problems (American Mathematical Society, 2006), pp. 31–44]. This conjecture uses methods of the analytical theory of numbers, while the current knowledge corresponds to the assumptions of the conjecture but has not been proven to date. In this paper, we focus on using a tangent line and the osculating circle for characterizing the rational points of the elliptical curve, which is the greatest benefit of the contribution. We use a different view of elliptic curves by using Minkowki’s theory of number geometry [H. F. Blichfeldt, A new principle in the geometry of numbers, with some applications, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 15(3) (1914) 227–235; V. S. Miller, Use of elliptic curves in cryptography, in Proc. Advances in Cryptology — CRYPTO ’85, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Vol. 218 (Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 1985), pp. 417–426; E. Bombieri and W. Gubler, Heights in Diophantine Geometry, Vol. 670, 1st edn. (Cambridge University Press, 2007)].
