Finding $K$-rational points on $X_0(35)$
Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2})$. How can I compute the $K$-rational points on the modular curve $X_0(35)$?
Recall that $X_0(35)$ is a hyperelliptic curve of genus 3 and has the simplified affine model:

How much do I need to learn algebraic geometry to understand arithmetics over number fields
I am at the stage of learning. Mostly, I am attracted by algebraic number theory. Roughly speaking, I am interested in the rational points of algebraic varieties. I am little bit afraid to start to ...

Computational tool for checking the existence of non-trivial rational zero of a cubic form
Suppose we consider a arbitrary cubic homogeneous form $f$ in in four or five variables over the rational field. Is there any computational tool or algorithm to check whether this cubic homogeneous ...

Density of rational points over finite fields, an estimate of Lang-Weil constant
Let $X\hookrightarrow\mathbb P^n_{\mathbb F_q}$ be a geometrically integral hypersurface over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$ of degree $\delta$. In order to estimate the number of its rational points, ...

Rational points on surfaces of general type
The weak Lang conjecture asserts that rational points on a variety of general type defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ are not Zariski dense (same replacing $\mathbb{Q}$ with a number field). This one is proved ...

Counting number of $2\times 2$ unimodular matrices of particular type
From set of numbers from $\Bbb S=\{0,1,\dots,m\}$, how many distinct $3\times 3$ unimodular matrices parametrized by $(a,b,c,d,e,f)\in\Bbb S^6$ of following type can one form?
