An elliptic curve is an algebraic curve of genus one with some additional properties. Questions with this tag will often have the top-level tags nt.number-theory or ag.algebraic-geometry. Note also the tag arithmetic-geometry as well as some related tags such as rational-points, abelian-varieties, heights. Please do not use this tag for questions related to ellipses; instead use conic-sections.

Elliptic curve group law, Sum of intersection points
I assume that elliptic curve means a cubic curve $E$ with some base point $O$.
Then the answer to your question is yes if and only if the base point O for the group law is a flex point of $E$. (In ma …

Isogenies from hyperelliptic to elliptic curves
This is only a partial answer.
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve and $E$ an elliptic curve. Let $i_1:C\to \mathbb{P}^1$ and $i_2: E\to\mathbb{P}^1$ be the double cover maps. Let $Q_1,\dots,Q_{2g+2}$ b …

Mordell-Weil of an elliptic surface after adjoining a nontorsion section: as small as possible?
I do not believe you have equality in general. I sketch a counterexample below, which is a geometric version of the fact that if $E/K$ is an elliptic curves such that the quadratic twist $E^{(d)}/K$ h …

Mordell-Weil of an elliptic surface after adjoining a nontorsion section: as small as possible?
I will sketch a counterexample for the modified question. The idea behind the construction is similar to the counterexample for the original question. Only the geometric details of this construction a …

Period integrals of the fiber of elliptically fibered K3 manifolds
I figure that there are better answers possible, but this might do for a stater:
Assuming that your $f$ and $g$ are minimimal (i.e. there is no $u$, with $\deg(u)>0$ s.t $u^4$ divides $f$ and $u^6$ …

Mordell-Weil Group of Elliptic Surface
1):
Suppose we work over an arbitrary field $K$ and suppose $\pi: X\to \mathbb{P}^1$ is an elliptic fibration with a torsion section of order $n$. Then you obtain a natural classification map $\mathbb …

Rank of $x (x^2 - 1) = c (c^2 - 1) y^2 $ over $\mathbb{Q}$ for given rational values of $c$
First you use $c$ as a parameter, i.e., consider your equation as elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(c)$.
You can also consider this equation as an equation of an elliptic surface $S$. Now one easily pr …

What heuristic evidence is there concerning the unboundedness or boundedness of Mordell-Weil...
I am not aware of much evidence for arbitrary high rank elliptic curves. Silverman in his book (Arithmetic of elliptic curves) gives as evidence the lack of evidence for the opposite statement. I gues …

Example of non-modular elliptic surface?
The modular elliptic surfaces are quite rare. E.g., the Mordell-Weil group is finite and the Picard number of the surface equals $h^{1,1}$ (see Shioda's paper). Such elliptic surfaces are called extre …
