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.

Canonical Height

AbstractWe determine the smallest possible canonical height$\hat {h}(P)$for a non-torsion pointPof an elliptic curveEover a function field(t) of discriminant degree 12nwith a 2-torsion point forn=1,2,3, and with a 3-torsion point forn=1,2. For eachm=2,3, we parametrize the set of triples (E,P,T) of an elliptic curveE/with a rational pointPandm-torsion pointTthat satisfy certain integrality conditions by an open subset of2. We recover explicit equations for all elliptic surfaces (E,P,T) attaining each minimum by locating them as curves in our projective models. We also prove that forn=1,2 , these heights are minimal for elliptic curves over a function field of any genus. In each case, the optimal (E,P,T) are characterized by their patterns of integral points.

A Finite Group

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)].

Primitive Roots

AbstractLet k = Fq be a finite field of characteristic p with q elements and let K be a function field of one variable over k. Consider an elliptic curve E defined over K. We determine how often the reduction of this elliptic curve to a prime ideal is cyclic. This is done by generalizing a result of Bilharz to a more general form of Artin's primitive roots problem formulated by R. Murty.

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.

New Formula

AbstractIn this paper we give a new formula for adding $2$-coverings and $3$-coverings of elliptic curves that avoids the need for any field extensions. We show that the $6$-coverings obtained can be represented by pairs of cubic forms. We then prove a theorem on the existence of such models with integer coefficients and the same discriminant as a minimal model for the Jacobian elliptic curve. This work has applications to finding rational points of large height on elliptic curves.

Let F be a global field of characteristic p > 0, 𝔽/F a Galois extension with [Formula: see text] and E/F a non-isotrivial elliptic curve. We study the behavior of Selmer groups SelE(L)l (l any prime) as L varies through the subextensions of 𝔽 via appropriate versions of Mazur's Control Theorem. In the case l = p, we let 𝔽 = ∪ 𝔽d where 𝔽d/F is a [Formula: see text]-extension. We prove that Sel E(𝔽d)p is a cofinitely generated ℤp[[ Gal (ℤd/F)]]-module and we associate to its Pontrjagin dual a Fitting ideal. This allows to define an algebraic L-function associated to E in ℤp[[Gal(ℤ/F)]], providing an ingredient for a function field analogue of Iwasawa's Main Conjecture for elliptic curves.

Abstract Let A be the coordinate ring of an affine elliptic curve (over an infinite field k) of the form X – {p}, where X is projective and p is a closed point on X. Denote by F the function field of X. We show that the image of H.(GL2 (A), ℤ) in H.(GL2 (F), ℤ) coincides with the image of H.(GL2 (k), ℤ). As a consequence, we obtain numerous results about the K-theory of A and X. For example, if k is a number field, we show that r2 (K2 (A) ⊗ ℚ) = 0, where rm denotes the mth level of the rank filtration.

Many elliptic curve cryptosystems require an encoding function from a finite field Fq into Fq-rational points of an elliptic curve. We propose a uniform encoding to general elliptic curves over Fq. We also discuss about an injective case of SWU encoing for hyperelliptic curves of genus 2. Moreover we discuss about an injective encoding for elliptic curves with a point of order two over a finite field and present a description for these elliptic curves.
