$(G,F)$-points on $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic varieties

Abstract

Let $G\in \mathbb{Q}[x,y,z]$ be a polynomial, and let $V(G)$ be the $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic variety corresponding to $G$, i.e., $V(G)=\{P\in {\mathbb{Q}}^3|G(P)=0\}$. Let \[\begin{split} F:\quad &\mathbb{Q}^3\rightarrow \mathbb{Q}^3,\\ &(x,y,z)\mapsto (f(x),f(y),f(z)) \end{split}\] be a vector function, where $f\in \mathbb{Q}[x]$. It is easy to know that the function obtained by the composition of $G$ and $F$, denoted as $G\circ F$, is still in $\mathbb{Q}[x,y,z]$. Moreover, let $V(G\circ F)$ be the $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic variety corresponding to $G\circ F$, i.e., $V(G\circ F)=\{P\in {\mathbb{Q}}^3|G\circ F(P)=0\}$. A rational point $P$ is called a $(G,F)$-point on $V(G)$ if $P$ belongs to the intersection of $V(G)$ and $V(G\circ F)$, that is $P\in V(G)\cap V(G\circ F)$. Denote $⟨G,F⟩$ as the set consisting of all $(G,F)$-points on $V(G)$. Obviously, $⟨G,F⟩$ is a $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic variety. In this paper, we consider the algebraic variety $⟨G,F⟩$ for some specific functions $G$ and $F$. For these specific functions $G$ and $F$, we prove that $⟨G,F⟩$ will be isomorphic to a certain elliptic curve. We also analyze some properties of these elliptic curves.
