Almost all quadratic twists of an elliptic curve have no integral points
Comments: 38 pagesCategories: math.NTFor a given elliptic curve E in short Weierstrass form, we show that almost all quadratic twists E_D have no integral points, as D ranges over square-free integers ordered by size. Our result is conditional on a weak form of the Hall-Lang conjecture in the case that E has partial 2-torsion. The proof uses a correspondence of Mordell and the reduction theory of binary quartic forms in order to transfer the problem to counting rational points of bounded height on a certain singular cubic surface, together with extensive use of cancellation in character sum estimates, drawn from Heath-Brown's analysis of Selmer group statistics for the congruent number curve.

Exp function for Edwards curves over local fields
Comments: 11 pages, 26 referencesWe extend the map Exp for elliptic curves in short Weierstrass form over $ \mathbb{C} $ to Edwards curves over local fields. Subsequently, we compute the map Exp for Edwards curves over the local field $ \mathbb{Q}_{p} $ of $ p $-adic numbers.

Tamagawa products of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$
Categories: math.NTWe explicitly construct the Dirichlet series $$L_{\mathrm{Tam}}(s):=\sum_{m=1}^{\infty}\frac{P_{\mathrm{Tam}}(m)}{m^s},$$ where $P_{\mathrm{Tam}}(m)$ is the proportion of elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ in short Weierstrass form with Tamagawa product $m.$ Although there are no $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with everywhere good reduction, we prove that the proportion with trivial Tamagawa product is $P_{\mathrm{Tam}}(1)=0.5053\dots.$ As a corollary, we find that $L_{\mathrm{Tam}}(-1)=1.8193\dots$ is the average Tamagawa product for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}.$ We give an application of these results to canonical and Weil heights.
