Generalizing results of Lemmermeyer, we show that the 2-ranks of the Tate Shafarevich groups of quadratic twists of certain elliptic curves with a rational point of order 2 can be arbitrarily large. We use only quadratic residue symbols in a quadratic field to obtain our results.

✦ Synopsis
Mazur [7]
has introduced the concept of visible elements in the Tate-Shafarevich group of optimal modular elliptic curves. We generalized the notion to arbitrary abelian subvarieties of abelian varieties and found, based on calculations that assume the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, that there are elements of the Tate-Shafarevich group of certain sub-abelian varieties of J,,(p) and .I, (p) that are not visible. 0 Academic des Sciences/Elsevier, Paris SW les &ments invisibles du groupe de Tate-Shafarevich R&urn& Muzur u introduit le concept d'e'lkments visibles du groupe de Tute-Shafurevich des courbes elliptiyues modulaires optimales.

We investigate Mazur's notion of visibility of elements of Shafarevich-Tate groups of abelian varieties. We give a proof that every cohomology class is visible in a suitable abelian variety, discuss the visibility dimension, and describe a construction of visible elements of certain Shafarevich-Tate
Let E be an elliptic curve over ] be an irreducible polynomial of odd degree, and let K =F ( √ d). Assume (p) remains prime in K. We prove the analogue of the formula of Gross for the special value L(E⊗ F K, 1). As a consequence, we obtain a formula for the order of the Tate-Shafarevich group I(E/K
We compute the ,-Selmer group for a family of elliptic curves, where , is an isogeny of degree 5, then find a practical formula for the Cassels Tate pairing on the ,-Selmer groups and use it to show that a particular family of elliptic curves have non-trivial 5-torsion in their Shafarevich Tate grou
