On the quadratic twist of elliptic curves with full $2$-torsion

Abstract

Let $E:y^2=x(x-a^2)(x+b^2)$ be an elliptic curve with full $2$-torsion group, where $a$ and $b$ are coprime integers and $2(a^2+b^2)$ is a square. Assume that the $2$-Selmer group of $E$ has rank two. We characterize all quadratic twists of $E$ with Mordell-Weil rank zero and $2$-primary Shafarevich-Tate groups $(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}{)}^2$, under certain conditions. We also obtain a distribution result of these elliptic curves.
