One may obtain information about the collective behavior the curves E_D by exploiting this connection; for example, one can prove: Theorem: Fix any prime p \\ne 3, and any congruence class c mod p. Then there are infinitely many D congruent to c mod p such that the curve E_D has no rational solutions. This paper is fairly self-contained; no prior knowledge of algebraic number theory, analytic number theory or metaplectic forms is assumed. On the other hand, this paper is a survey, no proofs are included.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1994-07-12T13:31:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "elliptic curve", "cubic twists", "automorphic forms", "metaplectic form", "algebraic number theory" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1994math......7202L" } } }
