I have a long-running desire to understand what is the "global" moduli stack of elliptic curves, as a stack over $\mathrm{Spec}(\mathbb{Z})$. Recently I was pointed to Katz and Mazur's book, ...

$\DeclareMathOperator\Sel{Sel}$Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ with full $2$-torsion. The classical complete $2$-descent method tells that the $2$-Selmer group $\Sel_2(E/K)...

Setup: Let $p$ be a prime, let $f(x) \in \mathbb{Q}_p[x]$ be a separable monic cubic polynomial cutting out the maximal order $\mathcal{O}_{K_f}$ in the etale algebra $K_f := \mathbb{Q}_p[x]/(f(x))$, ...
