Explicit points on the Legendre curve III
Published 25 Jun 2014 in math.NT | (1406.6674v3)
Abstract: We continue our study of the Legendre elliptic curve $y2=x(x+1)(x+t)$ over function fields $K_d=\mathbf{F}_p(\mu_d,t{1/d})$. When $d=pf+1$, we have previously exhibited explicit points generating a subgroup $V_d$ of $E(K_d)$ of rank $d-2$ and of finite, $p$-power index. We also proved the finiteness of $III(E/K_d)$ and a class number formula: $[E(K_d):V_d]2=|III(E/K_d)|$. In this paper, we compute $E(K_d)/V_d$ and $III(E/K_d)$ explicitly as modules over $\mathbf{Z}_p[\mathrm{Gal}(K_d/F_p(t))]$.
