Does Chabauty-Coleman method give an algorithm for finding rational points?
Let $X$ be a curve of genus $g\geq 2$ over a number field $K$. If $\mathrm{rk} \,\mathrm{Jac}\, X$ is less than $g$ there is a $p$-adic method of bounding $\# X(K)$ due to Chabauty and Coleman (see ...

Relationship between Tate-Shafarevich group and the BSD conjecture
The finiteness of the Tate-Shafarevich group is known to be equivalent to BSD for elliptic curves over function fields over $\mathbb{F}_{q},$ this result is due to Kato and Trihan if I am not mistaken....

Clarification on the weak BSD conjecture
It is usually told that Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer developped their famous conjecture after studying the growth of the function

BSD and generalisation of Gross-Zagier formula
The classical Gross-Zagier formula and the modularity theorem leads to a proof of half-BSD (i.e. an inequality and not equality) for elliptic curves of analytic rank 0.
The Gross-Zagier formula gives ...

integral basis for the Lie algebra of the Neron model of an abelian variety
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $K$. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the Neron model of $A$ over $O_K$. Let $\Omega_{\mathcal{A}/O_K}$ be the sheaf of invariant differential forms on $\mathcal{...
