Kihara-like Z/6Z elliptic curve families
Shoichi Kihara constructed a family of elliptic curves with Mordell–Weil group $\mathbb{Z}/6\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}^3$ (generic rank at least 3) in 2006. Kihara's family produces a number of rank 8 ...

3-, 6-, 12-descent for Z2xZ6 elliptic curves
We are trying to write a snippet of Magma code to clarify the steps in the simplified procedure of applying $3$-, $6$-, $12$-descent and hopefully resolve the missing generator of the following $\...

Is every sufficiently general monic quartic rational square infinitely often?
Let $f(x)=x^4+b_3 x^3+ b_2 x^2+b_1 x + b_0$.
Let $g(x)=x^4 f(1/x)$. Let $C : g(x)=y^2$.
$C$ is birationally equivalent to $f(x)=y^2$.
The constant coefficient of $g(x)$ is $1$ since $f$ is monic
and $(...
