▶Title : Bounds for 2-Selmer ranks in terms of a modified ideal class group
▶Abstract :
Let E be an elliptic curve over the rational number field Q.
Selmer Groups and Ideal Class Groups are important and widely-studied objects in number theory.

Brumer and Kramer studied relations between these two objects in their paper in 1977.

They actually found an upper bound for the 2-Selmer rank of E in terms of the ideal class group of a certain cubic field extension of Q.

As an application, they determined the Mordell-Weil ranks of (most) elliptic curves of prime conductor assuming BSD conjecture.

In this talk, we will talk about a generalization of Brumer-Kramer’s work to the case of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field.

We will give both upper and lower bounds for the 2-Selmer rank in terms of a (modified) ideal class group,

and the bounds turn out to be sharp in many cases. This is joint work with Hwajong Yoo.
