The exponent of Ш of $y^2 = x^3 + px$, where $p$ is a Fermat prime

For $d$ a non-zero integer, let $E_d$ be the elliptic curve $$ E_d : y^2 = x^3+dx. $$ When we let $d$ be $p = 2^{2^k}+1$, for $k \in \{1,2,3,4\}$, sage tells us that, conditionally on BSD, $$ \# Ш(E_p)...

Local global principle over infinite extension of $\Bbb{Q}$ which is not algebraically closed

Let $A$ be an algebraic variety over a field $K$, which is finite extension of $ \Bbb{Q}$. We say local global principle holds if $A(K_v) \neq \emptyset$ implies $A(K) \neq \emptyset$, where $K_v$ is ...

Some Questions regarding the fine Shafarevich-Tate group

The fine Shafarevich-Tate (ST) group appears to not have been studied in much depth except for one paper by Wuthrich (2007). However, it only talks about fine ST group for elliptic curves, which makes ...
