We also determine which groups $H = E(K)_{\\rm tors}$ can occur infinitely often and which ones occur for only finitely many curves. This article is a first step towards a complete classification of torsion growth of over sextic fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-08-08T13:40:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G05", "14H52", "14G05" ], "keywords": [ "rational elliptic curves", "sextic fields", "torsion subgroup", "first step", "complete classification" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
