A search for high rank congruent number elliptic curves.
We give a survey of computational class field theory. We first explain how to compute ray class groups and discriminants of the corresponding ray class fields. We then explain the three main methods in use for computing an equation for the class fields themselves: Kummer theory, Stark units and complex multiplication. Using these techniques we can construct many new number fields, including fields of very small root discriminant.
We consider a variety of Euler’s sum of powers conjecture, i.e., whether the Diophantine system has positive integer or rational solutions , , , , Using the theory of elliptic curves, we prove that it has no positive integer solution for , but there are infinitely many positive integers such that it has a positive integer solution for . As a corollary, for and any positive integer , the above Diophantine system has a positive rational solution. Meanwhile, we give conditions such that...
The aim of this paper is to extend our previous results about Galois action on the torsion points of abelian varieties to the case of (finitely generated) fields of characteristic 2.
We estimate the fraction of isogeny classes of abelian varieties over a finite field which have a given characteristic polynomial modulo . As an application we find the proportion of isogeny classes of abelian varieties with a rational point of order .
We prove an algebraicity criterion for leaves of algebraic foliations defined over number fields. Namely, consider a number field embedded in , a smooth algebraic variety over , equipped with a rational point , and an algebraic subbundle of the its tangent bundle , defined over . Assume moreover that the vector bundle is involutive, i.e., closed under Lie bracket. Then it defines an holomorphic foliation of the analytic manifold , and one may consider its leaf through . We prove...
Let k be a number field and S a finite set of places of k containing the archimedean ones. We count the number of algebraic points of bounded height whose coordinates lie in the ring of S-integers of k. Moreover, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of S̅-integers of bounded height and fixed degree over k, where S̅ is the set of places of k̅ lying above the ones in S.
