On integral similitude matrices

J. Brzeziński, T. Weibull (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study integral similitude 3 × 3-matrices and those positive integers which occur as products of their row elements, when matrices are symmetric with the same numbers in each row. It turns out that integers for which nontrivial matrices of this type exist define elliptic curves of nonzero rank and are closely related to generalized cubic Fermat equations.

On second 2-descent and non-congruent numbers

Yi Ouyang, Shenxing Zhang (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

We use the so-called second 2-descent method to find several series of non-congruent numbers. We consider three different 2-isogenies of the congruent elliptic curves and their duals, and find a necessary condition to estimate the size of the images of the 2-Selmer groups in the Selmer groups of the isogeny.
