On the de Rham and p -adic realizations of the elliptic polylogarithm for CM elliptic curves

Kenichi Bannai, Shinichi Kobayashi, Takeshi Tsuji (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

In this paper, we give an explicit description of the de Rham and p -adic polylogarithms for elliptic curves using the Kronecker theta function. In particular, consider an elliptic curve E defined over an imaginary quadratic field 𝕂 with complex multiplication by the full ring of integers 𝒪 𝕂 of 𝕂 . Note that our condition implies that 𝕂 has class number one. Assume in addition that E has good reduction above a prime p 5 unramified in 𝒪 𝕂 . In this case, we prove that the specializations of the p -adic elliptic...

On the diophantine equation f(x)f(y) = f(z)²

Maciej Ulas (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let f ∈ ℚ [X] and deg f ≤ 3. We prove that if deg f = 2, then the diophantine equation f(x)f(y) = f(z)² has infinitely many nontrivial solutions in ℚ (t). In the case when deg f = 3 and f(X) = X(X²+aX+b) we show that for all but finitely many a,b ∈ ℤ satisfying ab ≠ 0 and additionally, if p|a, then p²∤b, the equation f(x)f(y) = f(z)² has infinitely many nontrivial solutions in rationals.

On the discrete logarithm problem for plane curves

Claus Diem (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

In this article the discrete logarithm problem in degree 0 class groups of curves over finite fields given by plane models is studied. It is proven that the discrete logarithm problem for non-hyperelliptic curves of genus 3 (given by plane models of degree 4) can be solved in an expected time of O ˜ ( q ) , where q is the cardinality of the ground field. Moreover, it is proven that for every fixed natural number d 4 the following holds: We consider the discrete logarithm problem for curves given by plane models...

On the equation a³ + b³ⁿ = c²

Michael A. Bennett, Imin Chen, Sander R. Dahmen, Soroosh Yazdani (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

We study coprime integer solutions to the equation a³ + b³ⁿ = c² using Galois representations and modular forms. This case represents perhaps the last natural family of generalized Fermat equations descended from spherical cases which is amenable to resolution using the so-called modular method. Our techniques involve an elaborate combination of ingredients, ranging from ℚ-curves and a delicate multi-Frey approach, to appeal to intricate image of inertia arguments.

On the extendability of elliptic surfaces of rank two and higher

Angelo Felice Lopez, Roberto Muñoz, José Carlos Sierra (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study threefolds X r having as hyperplane section a smooth surface with an elliptic fibration. We first give a general theorem about the possible embeddings of such surfaces with Picard number two. More precise results are then proved for Weierstrass fibrations, both of rank two and higher. In particular we prove that a Weierstrass fibration of rank two that is not a K3 surface is not hyperplane section of a locally complete intersection threefold and we give some conditions, for many embeddings...
