A new family of elliptic curves with positive ranks arising from the Heron triangles
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new family of elliptic curves with
positive ranks. These elliptic curves have been constructed with certain
rational numbers, namely a, b, and c as sides of Heron triangles having
rational areas . It turned out that the torsion groups of this family are of
the form and also the
rank is positive
Sums of two biquadrates and elliptic curves of rank
If an integer is written as a sum of two biquadrates in two different
ways, then the elliptic curve has rank . If moreover
is odd and the parity conjecture is true, then it has even rank .
Finally, some examples of ranks equal to 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10, are also
obtained.Comment: 11 pages, 2 table
SUMS OF TWO BIQUADRATES AND ELLIPTIC CURVES OF RANK ≥ 4
If an integer n is written as a sum of two biquadrates in
two different ways, then the elliptic curve y2 = x3 − nx has positive
rank. We utilize Euler’s parametrization to introduce some homoge-
neous equations to prove that En has rank ≥ 3. If moreover n is odd
and the parity conjecture is true, then the curve has even rank ≥ 4.
Finally, some examples of ranks equal to 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10, are also
obtained
