Isogeny classes for elliptic curves over quadratic field

Question. Is it possible for an elliptic curve $E$ over quadratic field $K$ to have two separate (yet connected) isogeny classes? There are two $\mathbb{Z}/14\mathbb{Z}$ elliptic curves, $E_1$ and $...

Similar to a $d$-twist but over a cubic field

This question could be related to my old and Duality's newer questions. I am building a $\mathbb{Z}/9\mathbb{Z}$ elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$: $$E: y^2+(t^3-3t^2+1)xy + t^3(t-1)^3y=x^2$$ For $...

Ranks of elliptic curves over cubic fields

We are writing a paper on the ranks of elliptic curves over cubic fields. The curves of different torsion subgroups are created by the formulas in Jeon et al. and by our new parametrizations. D. Jeon,...

ℤ/18ℤ elliptic curves over cubic fields

I am working on $\mathbb{Z}/18\mathbb{Z}$ elliptic curves over cubic fields. The curves are created using the formulas on p. 584 of D. Jeon, C. H. Kim, Y. Lee, Families of elliptic curves over cubic ...

$2$-isogenous to a curve in the Tate normal form

It is well-known that an elliptic curve $E$ that has a point of order $2$ and is represented as $E=[0,a,0,b,0]$ has a $2$-isogenous curve $E^\prime=[0,-2a,0,a^2-4b,0]$, see e.g. p. 507 in A. Dujella, ...

Rationalizing and minimizing elliptic curve coefficients

I am working on elliptic curves with torsion group $\mathbb{Z}/14\mathbb{Z}$ over quadratic fields. The curves are constructed using the model $E_1=[0,a,0,b,0]$ following the formulas on p. 13 of L. ...

Systems of equations for elliptic curves without $3$-torsion

In his YouTube video New rank records for elliptic curves having rational torsion, Noam Elkies uses systems of equations at 6:16 and 8:38 to present $\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z}$ curves of rank 14 and rank ...

Z2xZ6 elliptic curves with missing generators

By implementing the techniques described in and similar to A. Dujella, J. C. Peral, Elliptic curves with torsion group Z/8Z or Z/2Z x Z/6Z, arXiv, Number Theory [math.NT] (2013), arXiv:1306.0027v1 A....

Z/8Z elliptic curve with a missing generator

We are searching for the rank $6$ elliptic curves with the torsion subgroup $\mathbb{Z}/8\mathbb{Z}$ using the families similar to Allan MacLeod's as described in A. J. MacLeod, A Simple Method for ...

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 $\...
