چکیده
— In the present paper, we prove the finiteness of the set of moderate rational points of a once-punctured elliptic curve over a number field. This finitenessmay be regarded as an analogue for a once-punctured elliptic curve of the well-known finiteness of the set of torsion rational points of an abelian variety over a number field. In order to obtain the finiteness, we discuss the center of the image of the pro-l outer Galois action associated to a hyperbolic curve. In particular, we give, under the assumption that l is odd, a necessary and sufficient condition for a certain hyperbolic curve over a generalized sub-l-adic field to have trivial center.

On the elliptic curves of the form $ y^2=x^3-3px $
By the Mordell-Weil theorem, the group of rational points on an elliptic curve over a number field is a finitely generated abelian group. There is no known algorithm for finding the rank of this group. This paper computes the rank of the family $ E_p:y^2=x^3-3px $ of elliptic curves, where p is a prime.

By the Mordell- Weil theorem, the group of rational points on an elliptic curve over a number field is a finitely generated abelian group. This paper studies the rank of the family Epq:y2=x3-pqx of elliptic curves, where p and q are distinct primes. We give infinite families of elliptic curves of the form y2=x3-pqx with rank two, three and four, assuming a conjecture of Schinzel ...

The Mordell-Weil theorem states that the group of rational points on an elliptic curve over the rational numbers is a finitely generated abelian group. In our previous paper, H. Daghigh, and S. Didari, On the elliptic curves of the form $ y^2=x^3-3px$, Bull. Iranian Math. Soc. 40 (2014), no. 5, 1119--1133., using Selmer groups, we have shown that for a prime $p...
متن کاملEfficient elliptic curve cryptosystems
Elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) are new generations of public key cryptosystems that have a smaller key size for the same level of security. The exponentiation on elliptic curve is the most important operation in ECC, so when the ECC is put into practice, the major problem is how to enhance the speed of the exponentiation. It is thus of great interest to develop algorithms for exponentiation...
متن کاملOn Silverman's conjecture for a family of elliptic curves
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $Bbb{Q}$ with the given Weierstrass equation $ y^2=x^3+ax+b$. If $D$ is a squarefree integer, then let $E^{(D)}$ denote the $D$-quadratic twist of $E$ that is given by $E^{(D)}: y^2=x^3+aD^2x+bD^3$. Let $E^{(D)}(Bbb{Q})$ be the group of $Bbb{Q}$-rational points of $E^{(D)}$. It is conjectured by J. Silverman that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $...
