Some examples of 5 and 7 descent for elliptic curves over $Q$

Tom Fisher (2001)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We perform descent calculations for the families of elliptic curves over $Q$ with a rational point of order $n = 5$ or 7. These calculations give an estimate for the Mordell-Weil rank which we relate to the parity conjecture. We exhibit explicit elements of the Tate-Shafarevich group of order 5 and 7, and show that the 5-torsion of the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve over $Q$ may become arbitrarily large.

Elliptic curves over function fields with a large set of integral points

Ricardo P. Conceição (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We construct isotrivial and non-isotrivial elliptic curves over $_{q} (t)$ with an arbitrarily large set of separable integral points. As an application of this construction, we prove that there are isotrivial log-general type varieties over $_{q} (t)$ with a Zariski dense set of separable integral points. This provides a counterexample to a natural translation of the Lang-Vojta conjecture to the function field setting. We also show that our main result provides examples of elliptic curves with an explicit...

Diagonalization in proof complexity

Jan Krajíček (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study diagonalization in the context of implicit proofs of [10]. We prove that at least one of the following three conjectures is true: ∙ There is a function f: 0,1* → 0,1 computable in that has circuit complexity $2^{Ω (n)}$ . ∙ ≠ co . ∙ There is no p-optimal propositional proof system. We note that a variant of the statement (either ≠ co or ∩ co contains a function $2^{Ω (n)}$ hard on average) seems to have a bearing on the existence of good proof complexity generators. In particular, we prove that...

Optimal curves differing by a 5-isogeny

Dongho Byeon, Taekyung Kim (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For i = 0,1, let $E_{i}$ be the $X_{i} (N)$ -optimal curve of an isogeny class of elliptic curves defined over ℚ of conductor N. Stein and Watkins conjectured that E₀ and E₁ differ by a 5-isogeny if and only if E₀ = X₀(11) and E₁ = X₁(11). In this paper, we show that this conjecture is true if N is square-free and is not divisible by 5. On the other hand, Hadano conjectured that for an elliptic curve E defined over ℚ with a rational point P of order 5, the 5-isogenous curve E’ := E/⟨P⟩ has a rational...

On the average value of the canonical height in higher dimensional families of elliptic curves

Wei Pin Wong (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Given an elliptic curve E over a function field K = ℚ(T₁,...,Tₙ), we study the behavior of the canonical height $h ̂_{E_{ω}}$ of the specialized elliptic curve $E_{ω}$ with respect to the height of ω ∈ ℚⁿ. We prove that there exists a uniform nonzero lower bound for the average of the quotient $(h ̂_{E_{ω}} (P_{ω})) / h (ω)$ over all nontorsion P ∈ E(K).

Selection principles and upper semicontinuous functions

Masami Sakai (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

In connection with a conjecture of Scheepers, Bukovský introduced properties wQN* and SSP* and asked whether wQN* implies SSP*. We prove it in this paper. We also give characterizations of properties S₁(Γ,Ω) and $S_{f i n} (Γ, Ω)$ in terms of upper semicontinuous functions

The Cohen-Lenstra heuristics, moments and $p^{j}$ -ranks of some groups

Christophe Delaunay, Frédéric Jouhet (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

This article deals with the coherence of the model given by the Cohen-Lenstra heuristic philosophy for class groups and also for their generalizations to Tate-Shafarevich groups. More precisely, our first goal is to extend a previous result due to É. Fouvry and J. Klüners which proves that a conjecture provided by the Cohen-Lenstra philosophy implies another such conjecture. As a consequence of our work, we can deduce, for example, a conjecture for the probability laws of $p^{j}$ -ranks of...

On a number theoretic conjecture on positive integral points in a 5-dimensional tetrahedron and a sharp estimate of the Dickman–De Bruijn function

Ke-Pao Lin, Xue Luo, Stephen S.-T. Yau, Huaiqing Zuo (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

It is well known that getting the estimate of integral points in right-angled simplices is equivalent to getting the estimate of Dickman-De Bruijn function $ψ (x, y)$ which is the number of positive integers $\leq x$ and free of prime factors $> y$ . Motivating from the Yau Geometry Conjecture, the third author formulated the Number Theoretic Conjecture which gives a sharp polynomial upper estimate that counts the number of positive integral points in n-dimensional ( $n \geq 3$ ) real right-angled simplices. In this...

Small discriminants of complex multiplication fields of elliptic curves over finite fields

Igor E. Shparlinski (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We obtain a conditional, under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, lower bound on the number of distinct elliptic curves $E$ over a prime finite field $𝔽_{p}$ of $p$ elements, such that the discriminant $D (E)$ of the quadratic number field containing the endomorphism ring of $E$ over $𝔽_{p}$ is small. For almost all primes we also obtain a similar unconditional bound. These lower bounds complement an upper bound of F. Luca and I. E. Shparlinski (2007).

A proof of the Grünbaum conjecture

Bruce L. Chalmers, Grzegorz Lewicki (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let V be an n-dimensional real Banach space and let λ(V) denote its absolute projection constant. For any N ∈ N with N ≥ n define $λ ₙ^{N} = s u p λ (V) : d i m (V) = n, V \subset l_{\infty}^{(N)}$ , λₙ = supλ(V): dim(V) = n. A well-known Grünbaum conjecture [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 95 (1960)] says that λ₂ = 4/3. König and Tomczak-Jaegermann [J. Funct. Anal. 119 (1994)] made an attempt to prove this conjecture. Unfortunately, their Proposition 3.1, used in the proof, is incorrect. In this paper a complete proof of the Grünbaum conjecture is presented ...

Mixed $A_{p} - A_{\infty}$ estimates with one supremum

Andrei K. Lerner, Kabe Moen (2013)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We establish several mixed $A_{p} - A_{\infty}$ bounds for Calderón-Zygmund operators that only involve one supremum. We address both cases when the $A_{\infty}$ part of the constant is measured using the exponential-logarithmic definition and using the Fujii-Wilson definition. In particular, we answer a question of the first author and provide an answer, up to a logarithmic factor, to a conjecture of Hytönen and Lacey. Moreover, we give an example to show that our bounds with the logarithmic factors can be arbitrarily...

On the arithmetic of the hyperelliptic curve $y^{2} = x^{n} + a$

Kevser Aktaş, Hasan Şenay (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We study the arithmetic properties of hyperelliptic curves given by the affine equation $y^{2} = x^{n} + a$ by exploiting the structure of the automorphism groups. We show that these curves satisfy Lang’s conjecture about the covering radius (for some special covering maps).

Optimal $L^{p}$ -properties of Green’s functions for non-divergence elliptic equations in two dimensions

Gioconda Moscariello, Carlo Sbordone (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A sharp integrability result for non-negative adjoint solutions to planar non-divergence elliptic equations is proved. A uniform estimate is also given for the Green's function.

A Bogomolov property for curves modulo algebraic subgroups

Philipp Habegger (2009)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Generalizing a result of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier we show that on a curve in the algebraic torus which is not contained in any proper coset only finitely many points are close to an algebraic subgroup of codimension at least $2$ . The notion of close is defined using the Weil height. We also deduce some cardinality bounds and further finiteness statements.

Infinite rank of elliptic curves over $ℚ^{a b}$

Bo-Hae Im, Michael Larsen (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

If E is an elliptic curve defined over a quadratic field K, and the j-invariant of E is not 0 or 1728, then $E (ℚ^{a b})$ has infinite rank. If E is an elliptic curve in Legendre form, y² = x(x-1)(x-λ), where ℚ(λ) is a cubic field, then $E (K ℚ^{a b})$ has infinite rank. If λ ∈ K has a minimal polynomial P(x) of degree 4 and v² = P(u) is an elliptic curve of positive rank over ℚ, we prove that y² = x(x-1)(x-λ) has infinite rank over $K ℚ^{a b}$ .

On the Brocard-Ramanujan problem and generalizations

Andrzej Dąbrowski (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let $p_{i}$ denote the ith prime. We conjecture that there are precisely 28 solutions to the equation $n ² - 1 = p ₁^{α ₁} \dots p_{k}^{α_{k}}$ in positive integers n and α₁,..., $α_{k}$ . This conjecture implies an explicit description of the set of solutions to the Brocard-Ramanujan equation. We also propose another variant of the Brocard-Ramanujan problem: describe the set of solutions in non-negative integers of the equation n! + A = x₁²+x₂²+x₃² (A fixed).

We prove that if the Cantor set K, dynamically defined by a function $S \in C^{1 + α}$ , satisfies the conditions of McDuff’s conjecture then it cannot be C¹-minimal.
