Rank stability of elliptic curves over π½q(t) in residue classes
Abstract
Fix a prime β. Let K = π½q(t) be a global function field such that gcd(q,6) = 1 and q β‘ 1 pmod β. Let E be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over K. Given a fixed monic polynomial Q over π½q, and assuming some mild conditions on E, we show that the rank of E does not change with respect to a positive proportion of β€/β β€ extensions K(β[β]f)/K, as f varies over the set of monic polynomials over π½q such that f β‘ A pmod Q for any given polynomial A. We obtain this result by combining analytic and probabilistic techniques to study the distribution of certain prime Selmer groups of auxiliary abelian varieties constructed from these polynomials f.
