✦ Synopsis


A structure theorem on the Mordell-Weil group of abelian varieties which arise as the twists associated with various double covers of varieties is proved. As an application, a three-parameter family of elliptic curves whose generic Mordell-Weil rank is four is constructed. * 1995 Academic Press. Inc.

We develop efficient methods for deterministic computations with semi-algebraic sets and apply them to the problem of counting points on curves and Abelian varieties over finite fields. For Abelian varieties of dimension g in projective N space over Fq, we improve Pila's result and show that the pro

We examine the Mazur-Tate canonical height pairing defined between an abelian variety over a global field and its dual. We show in the case of global function fields that certain of these pairings are annihilated by universal norms coming from Carlitz cyclotomic extensions. Furthermore, for elliptic

It is known that Drinfeld modular curves can be used to construct asymptotically optimal towers of curves over finite fields. Using reductions of the Drinfeld modular curves X 0 ðnÞ, we try to find individual curves over finite fields with many rational points. The main idea is to divide by an Atkin

In this paper we prove several theorems about abelian varieties over finite fields by studying the set of monic real polynomials of degree 2n all of whose roots lie on the unit circle. In particular, we consider a set V n of vectors in R n that give the coefficients of such polynomials. We calculate

If p is an odd prime, then denote by % N the "eld with p elements. We prove that a certain "vefold is modular in the sense that for every odd p, the number of its points over % N is predicted explicitly by the pth coe$cient of the Fourier expansion of the weight 6 modular form (2z).
