Exact classification of elliptic curves with rank and trivial $\Sha[2]$

arXiv:2607.14033

Abstract

For the elliptic curves where and are distinct odd primes, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which rank and $\dim_{\mathbb{F}_{2}} \Sha \left( E_{p,q}/\bbQ \right)[2]$ are both . We do so via a similar characterisation of when the Selmer groups associated with the degree- isogeny and its dual are both of minimal size, along with results about a cokernel that arises from a related exact sequence.
