Abstract We show that given a finitely generated LERF group G with positive rank gradient, and finitely generated subgroups A, B ≤ G of infinite index, one can find a finite index subgroup B0 of B such that [G : 〈A ∪ B0〉] = ∞. This generalizes a theorem of Olshanskii on free groups. We conclude that a finite product of finitely generated subgroups of infinite index does not cover G. We construct a transitive virtually faithful action of G such that the orbits of finitely generated subgroups of infinite index are finite. Some of the results extend to profinite groups with positive rank gradient.

Let [Formula: see text] be the Grassmann bundle of two-planes associated to a general bundle [Formula: see text] over a curve [Formula: see text]. We prove that an embedding of [Formula: see text] by a certain twist of the relative Plücker map is not secant defective. This yields a new and more geometric proof of the Hirschowitz-type bound on the isotropic Segre invariant for maximal isotropic sub-bundles of orthogonal bundles over [Formula: see text], analogous to those given for vector bundles and symplectic bundles in [I. Choe and G. H. Hitching, Secant varieties and Hirschowitz bound on vector bundles over a curve, Manuscripta Math. 133 (2010) 465–477, I. Choe and G. H. Hitching, Lagrangian sub-bundles of symplectic vector bundles over a curve, Math. Proc. Cambridge Phil. Soc. 153 (2012) 193–214]. From the non-defectivity, we also deduce an interesting feature of a general orthogonal bundle of even rank over [Formula: see text], contrasting with the classical and symplectic cases: a general maximal isotropic sub-bundle of maximal degree intersects at least one other such sub-bundle in positive rank.

Abstract The notion of the truncated Euler characteristic for Iwasawa modules is an extension of the notion of the usual Euler characteristic to the case when the homology groups are not finite. This article explores congruence relations between the truncated Euler characteristics for dual Selmer groups of elliptic curves with isomorphic residual representations, over admissible p-adic Lie extensions. Our results extend earlier congruence results from the case of elliptic curves with rank zero to the case of higher rank elliptic curves. The results provide evidence for the p-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formula without assuming the main conjecture.

AbstractWe show that for any pair of elliptic curves E1, E2 over ℚ with j-invariant equal to 0, we can find a polynomial D ∈ ℤ[u, v] such that the cubic twists of the curves E1, E2 by D(u, v) have positive rank over ℚ(u, v). We also prove that for any quadruple of pairwise distinct elliptic curves Ei, i = 1, 2, 3, 4, with j-invariant j = 0, there exists a polynomial D ∈ ℤ[u] such that the sextic twists of Ei, i = 1, 2, 3, 4, by D(u) have positive rank. A similar result is proved for quadruplets of elliptic curves with j-invariant j = 1, 728.

AbstractWe make conjectures on the moments of the central values of the family of all elliptic curves and on themoments of the first derivative of the central values of a large family of positive rank curves. In both cases the order of magnitude is the same as that of the moments of the central values of an orthogonal family of L-functions. Notably, we predict that the critical values of all rank 1 elliptic curves is logarithmically larger than the rank 1 curves in the positive rank family.Furthermore, as arithmetical applications, we make a conjecture on the distribution of ap's amongst all rank 2 elliptic curves and show how the Riemann hypothesis can be deduced from sufficient knowledge of the first moment of the positive rank family (based on an idea of Iwaniec).

We show that for a quartic elliptic fibration over a real number field, existence of two positive rank fibers implies existence of a dense set of positive rank fibers. We also prove the same result for certain sextic families.
