Non-existence of points rational over number fields on Shimura curves

Keisuke Arai (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Jordan, Rotger and de Vera-Piquero proved that Shimura curves have no points rational over imaginary quadratic fields under a certain assumption. In this article, we extend their results to the case of number fields of higher degree. We also give counterexamples to the Hasse principle on Shimura curves.

Non-trivial Ш in the Jacobian of an infinite family of curves of genus 2

Anna Arnth-Jensen, E. Victor Flynn (2009)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We give an infinite family of curves of genus 2 whose Jacobians have non-trivial members of the Tate-Shafarevich group for descent via Richelot isogeny. We prove this by performing a descent via Richelot isogeny and a complete 2-descent on the isogenous Jacobian. We also give an explicit model of an associated family of surfaces which violate the Hasse principle.
