We describe the structure of Tate-Shafarevich groups of a constant elliptic curves over function fields by exploiting the volcano structure of isogeny graphs of elliptic curves over finite fields.
We give a detailed presentation of $\ell$-isogeny graphs associated with ordinary elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We then focus on the following inverse problem: given an abstract volcano $V$, do there always exist primes $\ell, p \in \mathbb{N}$ such that the ordinary $\ell$-isogeny graph over $\mathbb{F}_p$ contains $V$ as a connected component? We provide an affirmative answer to this question.

Record values are determined for the order $|\Sha|$ of the Tate--Shafarevich group of an elliptic curve $E$, computed analytically by the Birch--Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, and for the Goldfeld--Szpiro ratio $G=|\Sha|/\sqrt{N}$, where $N$ is the conductor of $E$. The curves have rank zero and are isogenous to quadratic twists of Frey curves constructed from coprime positive integers $(a,b,c)$ with $a+b=c$ and $c>r^{1.4}$, where the radical $r$ is the product of the primes dividing $abc$. Curves with $|\Sha|>250000^2$ and $G>12$ are found in 20 isogeny classes. Three curves have $G>150$. The la…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $F$ and let $p$ be a prime. Cohen-Lenstra-Delaunay-style heuristics predict that the Tate-Shafarevich group of $A_s$ should contain an element of order $p$ for a positive proportion of quadratic twists $A_s$ of $A$. We give a general method to prove instances of this conjecture by exploiting independent isogenies of $A$. For each prime $p$, there is a large class of elliptic curves for which our method shows that a positive proportion of quadratic twists have nontrivial $p$-torsion in their Tate-Shafarevich groups. In particular, when the modul…

We study the behavior under twisting of the Selmer rank parities of a self-dual prime-degree isogeny on a principally polarized abelian variety defined over a number field, subject to compatibility relations between the twists and the isogeny. In particular, we study isogenies on abelian varieties whose Selmer rank parities are related to the rank parities of elliptic curves with $j$-invariant 0 or 1728, assuming the Shafarevich-Tate conjecture. Using these results, we show how to classify the conjectural rank parities of all quartic or sextic twists of an elliptic curve defined over a number …
For each prime $p$, we show that there exist geometrically simple abelian varieties $A/\mathbb Q$ with non-trivial $p$-torsion in their Tate-Shafarevich groups. Specifically, for any prime $N\equiv 1 \pmod{p}$, let $A_f$ be an optimal quotient of $J_0(N)$ with a rational point $P$ of order $p$, and let $B = A_f/\langle P \rangle$. Then the number of positive integers $d \leq X$, such that the Tate-Shafarevich group of $\hat B_d$ has non-trivial $p$-torsion, is $\gg X/\log X$, where $\hat B_d$ is the dual of the $d$-th quadratic twist of $B$. We prove this more generally for abelian varieties o…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be an elliptic curve over a field $K$ and $\ell$ a prime. There exists an elliptic curve $\mathcal{E}^*$ related to $\mathcal{E}$ by anisogeny (rational map that is also a group homomorphisms) of degree $\ell$ if and only $Φ_\ell(X, j(\mathcal{E})) = 0$, where $Φ_\ell(X, Y)$ is the traditional modular polynomial. Moreover, the modular polynomial gives the coefficients of $\mathcal{E}^*$, together with parameters needed to build the isogeny explicitly. Since the traditional modular polynomial has large coefficients, many families with smaller coefficients can be used instead, …
There are several formulas for the number of orbits of the projective line under the action of subgroups of $GL_2$. We give an interpretation of two such formulas in terms of the geometry of elliptic curves, and prove a more general formula for a large class of congruence subgroups of Bianchi groups. Our formula involves the number of walks on a certain graph called an isogeny volcano. Underlying our results is a complete description of the group of extensions of a pair of CM elliptic curves, and of a pair of lattices in a quadratic field.
