Is there a way to calculate the Picard $\mathbb{F}_q$-number of an (rational or K3) elliptic surface?
Consider a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ and an elliptic surface
$$
\mathcal{E}\!: y^2 + a_1(t)xy + a_3(t)y = x^3 + a_2(t)x^2 + a_4(t)x + a_6,
$$
where $a_i(t) \in \mathbb{F}_{q}[t]$. Is there a way ...

What is the Artin invariant of an elliptic supersingular K3 surface?
Let $X$ be a supersingular K3 surface over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $\!p$. Artin proved in the paper https://eudml.org/doc/81948 that the determinant $\mathrm{disc}(...

Are there three ordinary elliptic curves $E$, $E_1$, $E_2$ such that $E^2 \cong E_1 \!\times\! E_2$?
Consider the elliptic curve $E\!: y^2 = x^3 + 1$ of $j$-invariant $0$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristics $p$. Let me remind that $E$ is ordinary (i.e., non-supersingular) iff $p ...

The Jacobian surface of an elliptic surface
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an elliptic surface over $\mathbb{P}^1$ without a section and let $\mathcal{J}$ be an elliptic surface over $\mathbb{P}^1$ with a section. Assume we have the commutative diagram

What conditions are sufficient for two points to be independent in the Mordell-Weil group?
Consider a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ and an elliptic surface
$$
\mathcal{E}\!: y^2 + a_1(t)xy + a_3(t)y = x^3 + a_2(t)x^2 + a_4(t)x + a_6(t),
$$
where $a_i(t) \in \mathbb{F}_{q}[t]$. I am mainly ...

An elliptic threefold and the Mordell–Weil lattices of its reductions
Let $T\!: y^2 = x^3 + a(t, s)x + b(t, s)$ be an elliptic threefold over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p > 3$. In other words, we have an elliptic curve over the function field $\...

Elliptic fibrations on some Kummer surface in characteristic $2$
In the question I ask about one elliptic fibration on the surface
$$
K\!: y^2 + x_1x_2y = (x_1x_2)^2(x_1 + x_2 + 1) + (x_1 + x_2)^2.
$$
over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $2$ such ...

Is there an infinite order $\mathbb{F}_{p}$-section for a certain elliptic surface $\mathcal{E}_n$?
Consider a natural number $n$, a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ (such that $p$ is prime, $p \equiv 1 \ (\mathrm{mod} \ 3)$, $p \equiv 3 \ (\mathrm{mod} \ 4)$, and $\sqrt[3]{2} \notin \mathbb{F}_p$), ...
