We show that every elliptic curve over a finite field of odd characteristic whose number of rational points is divisible by 4 is isogenous to an elliptic curve in Legendre form, with the sole exception of a minimal respectively maximal elliptic curve. We also collect some results concerning the supe

Let n 5 be an integer. We provide an effective method for finding all elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form E/Q with j (E) β {0, 1728} and all P β E(Q) such that the nth term in the elliptic divisibility sequence defined by P over E fails to have a primitive divisor. In particular, we improve re
Let E be an elliptic curve over ] be an irreducible polynomial of odd degree, and let K =F ( β d). Assume (p) remains prime in K. We prove the analogue of the formula of Gross for the special value L(Eβ F K, 1). As a consequence, we obtain a formula for the order of the Tate-Shafarevich group I(E/K
Using Drinfeld modular curves we determine the places of supersingular reduction of elliptic curves over F 2 r( T) with certain conductors. This enables us to classify and describe explicitly all elliptic curves over F 2 r( T ) having a conductor of degree 4. Our results also imply that extremal ell
Elliptic curves over finite fields have found applications in many areas including cryptography. In the current work we define a metric on the set of elliptic curves defined over a prime field F p , p > 3. Computing this metric requires us to solve an instance of a discrete log problem in F \* p . T
