Potential modularity for elliptic curves and some applications

In this paper we prove the simultaneous potential modularity for a finite number of elliptic curves defined over a totally real field. As an application we prove the meromorphic continuation of some L-functions associated to elliptic curves and Tate conjecture for a product of 2 or 4 elliptic curves defined over a totally real field.     

On Quadratic Twists of Elliptic Curves and Some Applications of a Refined Version of Yu's Formula

In this article, we study some cohomology groups and quadratic twists of elliptic curves, and apply Tate local duality and the results of Kramer–Tunnell on local norm cokernel to give a refined version of Yu's formula in the case of elliptic curves. Then, by using this refinement formula, we obtain explicit orders of Shafarevich–Tate groups of some elliptic curves in quadratic number fields, including a few unconditional cases.     

Elliptic solutions of nonlinear integrable equations and related topics

The theory of elliptic solitons for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation and the dynamics of the corresponding Calogero-Moser system is integrated. It is found that all the elliptic solutions for the KP equation manifest themselves in terms of Riemann theta functions which are associated with algebraic curves admitting a realization in the form of a covering of the initial elliptic curve with some special properties. These curves are given in the paper by explicit formulae. We further give applications of the elliptic Baker-Akhiezer function to generalized elliptic genera of manifolds and to algebraic 2-valued formal groups.Dedicated to the memory of J.-L. Verdier     

Simplified isogeny formulas on twisted Jacobi quartic curves

Isogenies between elliptic curves play a very important role in elliptic curve related cryptosystems and cryptanalysis. It is widely known that different models of elliptic curves would induce different computational costs of elliptic curve arithmetic, and several works have been devoted to accelerate the isogeny computation on various curve models. This paper studies the case of the Jacobi quartic model, which is a classic form of elliptic curves. A new w-coordinate system on extended Jacobi quartic curves is introduced for Montgomery-like group arithmetic. Explicit formulas for 2-isogenies and odd ℓ-isogenies on the specific curves are presented, and based on the w-coordinate system, the computation of such isogenies could be further simplified.     

Refined elliptic tropical enumerative invariants

We suggest a new refined (i.e., depending on a parameter) tropical enumerative invariant of toric surfaces. This is the first known enumerative invariant that counts tropical curves of positive genus with marked vertices. Our invariant extends the refined rational broccoli invariant invented by L. Göttsche and the first author, though there is a serious difference between the invariants: our elliptic invariant counts weights assigned partly to individual tropical curves and partly to collections of tropical curves, and our invariant is not always multiplicative over the vertices of the counted tropical curves as was the case for other known tropical enumerative invariants of toric surfaces. As a consequence we define elliptic broccoli curves and elliptic broccoli invariants as well as elliptic tropical descendant invariants for any toric surface.

Elliptic periods and primality proving

We construct extension rings with fast arithmetic using isogenies between elliptic curves. As an application, we give an elliptic version of the AKS primality criterion.     

On zeros of Eichler integrals

Eichler integrals play an integral part in the modular parametrizations of elliptic curves. In her master’s thesis, Kodgis conjectures several dozen zeros of Eichler integrals for elliptic curves with conductor ≤ 179. In this paper we prove a general theorem which confirms many of these conjectured zeros. We also provide two ways to generate infinite families of elliptic curves with certain zeros of their Eichler integrals.     

On isogeny graphs of supersingular elliptic curves over finite fields

We study the isogeny graphs of supersingular elliptic curves over finite fields, with an emphasis on the vertices corresponding to elliptic curves of j-invariant 0 and 1728.     

Avoiding Side-Channel Attacks by Computing Isogenous and Isomorphic Elliptic Curves

Smart cards are being attacked increasingly more, due to their numerous uses and the valuable information stored inside. For this reason, efficient and secure cryptosystems need to be designed. The main problem is that smart cards are resource constrained. Moreover, they are vulnerable to side-channel attacks. In this paper, we use an algorithm to compute side-channel-resistant alternatives to the curves given in the NIST standard and to the new elliptic curves recently presented by Microsoft Research. The algorithm does this by computing isogenous and isomorphic elliptic curves.     

Genus Two Curves with Many Elliptic Subcovers

We determine all genus 2 curves, defined over ?, which have simultaneously degree 2 and 3 elliptic subcovers. The locus of such curves has three irreducible 1-dimensional genus zero components in ?₂. For each component, we find a rational parametrization and construct the equation of the corresponding genus 2 curve and its elliptic subcovers in terms of the parameterization. Such families of genus 2 curves are determined for the first time. Furthermore, we prove that there are only finitely many genus 2 curves (up to ?-isomorphism) defined over ?, which have degree 2 and 3 elliptic subcovers also defined over ?.     

Spectral curves for Cauchy-Riemann operators on punctured elliptic curves

We show that one can define a spectral curve for the Cauchy-Riemann operator on a punctured elliptic curve under appropriate boundary conditions. The algebraic curves thus obtained arise, for example, as irreducible components of the spectral curves of minimal tori with planar ends in ?³. It turns out that these curves coincide with the spectral curves of certain elliptic KP solitons studied by Krichever.     

Average frobenius distributions for elliptic curves with 3-torsion

In this paper, we examine the Lang-Trotter conjecture for elliptic curves which possess rational 3-torsion points. We prove that if one averages over all such elliptic curves then one obtains an asymptotic similar to the one predicted by Lang and Trotter.     

Geometric Syzygies of Elliptic Normal Curves and their Secant Varieties

We show that the linear syzygy spaces of elliptic normal curves, their secant varieties and of bielliptic canonical curves are spanned by geometric syzygies.     

An algorithm for DLP on anomalous elliptic curves over Fp

This paper improves the method of discrete logarithm on anomalous elliptic curves, and establishes an isomorphism from E(Fp) to Fp which can be more easily implemented. Fruthermore, we give an optimized algorithm for discrete logarithm on anomalous elliptic curves E(Fp).     

Primitive divisors of elliptic divisibility sequences

Silverman proved the analogue of Zsigmondy's Theorem for elliptic divisibility sequences. For elliptic curves in global minimal form, it seems likely this result is true in a uniform manner. We present such a result for certain infinite families of curves and points. Our methods allow the first explicit examples of the elliptic Zsigmondy Theorem to be exhibited. As an application, we show that every term beyond the fourth of the Somos-4 sequence has a primitive divisor.     

Generating More MNT Elliptic Curves

In their seminal paper, Miyaji et al. [13] describe a simple method for the creation of elliptic curves of prime order with embedding degree 3, 4, or 6. Such curves are important for the realisation of pairing-based cryptosystems on ordinary (non-supersingular) elliptic curves. We provide an alternative derivation of their results, and extend them to allow for the generation of many more suitable curves. Research supported by Enterprise Ireland grant IF/2002/0312/N.     

The difference between the ordinary height and the canonical height on elliptic curves

We estimate the bounds for the difference between the ordinary height and the canonical height on elliptic curves over number fields. Our result is an improvement of the recent result of Cremona, Prickett, and Siksek [J.E. Cremona, M. Prickett, S. Siksek, Height difference bounds for elliptic curves over number fields, J. Number Theory 116 (2006) 42-68]. Our bounds are usually sharper than the other known bounds.
