A local-global principle for rational isogenies of prime degree

Andrew V. Sutherland (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let K be a number field. We consider a local-global principle for elliptic curves E / K that admit (or do not admit) a rational isogeny of prime degree . For suitable K (including K = ), we prove that this principle holds for all 1 mod 4 , and for < 7 , but find a counterexample when = 7 for an elliptic curve with j -invariant 2268945 / 128 . For K = we show that, up to isomorphism, this is the only counterexample.

A Note on height pairings on polarized abelian varieties

Valerio Talamanca (1999)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k . In this short Note we give a characterization of the endomorphisms that preserve the height pairing associated to a polarization. We also give a functorial interpretation of this result.

A remark on the Picard group of spin moduli space

Maurizio Cornalba (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We describe a number of classes in the Picard group of spin moduli space and determine the relations they satisfy; as an application we show that the Picard group in question contains 4-torsion elements.
