High rank eliptic curves of the form y = x + Bx.

Julián Aguirre, Fernando Castañeda, Juan Carlos Peral (2000)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

Seven elliptic curves of the form y = x + B x and having rank at least 8 are presented. To find them we use the double descent method of Tate. In particular we prove that the curve with B = 14752493461692 has rank exactly 8.

Mordell-Weil ranks of families of elliptic curves associated to Pythagorean triples

Bartosz Naskręcki (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We study the family of elliptic curves y² = x(x-a²)(x-b²) parametrized by Pythagorean triples (a,b,c). We prove that for a generic triple the lower bound of the rank of the Mordell-Weil group over ℚ is 1, and for some explicitly given infinite family the rank is 2. To each family we attach an elliptic surface fibered over the projective line. We show that the lower bounds for the rank are optimal, in the sense that for each generic fiber of such an elliptic surface its corresponding...
