On the number of elliptic curves with prescribed isogeny or torsion group over number fields of prime degree
نویسنده
چکیده
Let p be a prime and K a number field of degree p. We count 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 an isogeny of prescribed degree. We also study the following question: for a given n such that |Y0(n)(Q)| > 0, does every elliptic curve over K with an n-isogeny have a quadratic twist with torsion Z/nZ as a subgroup? We prove that this is true only for the cases n = 2, 3, 4, 6 and for the pairs (n,K) = (11,Q(ζ11)) and (n,K) = (14,Q(ζ7)).

Descent by 3-isogeny and 3-rank of quadratic fields
In this paper families of elliptic curves admitting a rational isogeny of degree 3 are studied. It is known that the 3-torsion in the class group of the field defined by the points in the kernel of such an isogeny is related to the rank of the elliptic curve. Families in which almost all the curves have rank at least 3 are constructed. In some cases this provides lower bounds for the number of ...
متن کاملRanks of Elliptic Curves with Prescribed Torsion over Number Fields
We study the structure of the Mordell–Weil group of elliptic curves over number fields of degree 2, 3, and 4. We show that if T is a group, then either the class of all elliptic curves over quadratic fields with torsion subgroup T is empty, or it contains curves of rank 0 as well as curves of positive rank. We prove a similar but slightly weaker result for cubic and quartic fields. On the other...
متن کاملFamilies of elliptic curves over quartic number fields with prescribed torsion subgroups
We construct infinite families of elliptic curves with given torsion group structures over quartic number fields. In a 2006 paper, the first two authors and Park determined all of the group structures which occur infinitely often as the torsion of elliptic curves over quartic number fields. Our result presents explicit examples of their theoretical result. This paper also presents an efficient ...

In this paper we construct infinite families of elliptic curves with given torsion group structures over cubic number fields. This result provides explicit examples of the theoretical result recently developed by the first two authors and A.

متن کاملHeuristics on pairing-friendly elliptic curves
We present a heuristic asymptotic formula as x → ∞ for the number of isogeny classes of pairing-friendly elliptic curves over prime fields with fixed embedding degree k ≥ 3, with fixed discriminant, with rho-value bounded by a fixed ρ0 such that 1 < ρ0 < 2, and with prime subgroup order at most x.
