Elliptic divisibility sequences are integer recurrence sequences, each of which is associated to an elliptic curve over the rationals together with a rational point on that curve. In this paper we present a higher-dimensional analogue over arbitrary base fields. Suppose E is an elliptic curve over a field K, and P1, . . . , Pn are points on E defined over K. To this information we associate an ...

This paper will examine the role of elliptic curves in the field of cryptography. The applicability of an analogous discrete logarithm problem to elliptic curve groups provides a basis for the security of elliptic curves. Two cryptographic protocols which implement elliptic curves are examined as well as two popular methods to solve the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Finally, a comp...

In this paper, based on sinh-cosh method and sinh-Gordon expansion method,families of solutions of (2+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation are obtained.These solutions include Jacobi elliptic function solution, soliton solution,trigonometric function solution.

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of positive solutions for the Laplacian systems with sign-changing weight functions. Using the decomposition of the Nehari manifold, we prove that an elliptic system has at least two positive solutions.

let $e$ be an elliptic curve over $bbb{q}$ with the given weierstrass equation $ y^2=x^3+ax+b$. if $d$ is a squarefree integer, then let $e^{(d)}$ denote the $d$-quadratic twist of $e$ that is given by $e^{(d)}: y^2=x^3+ad^2x+bd^3$. let $e^{(d)}(bbb{q})$ be the group of $bbb{q}$-rational points of $e^{(d)}$. it is conjectured by j. silverman that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $...

This paper is concerned with the existence of multiple positive‎ ‎solutions for a quasilinear elliptic system involving concave-convex‎ ‎nonlinearities‎ ‎and sign-changing weight functions‎. ‎With the help of the Nehari manifold and Palais-Smale condition‎, ‎we prove that the system has at least two nontrivial positive‎ ‎solutions‎, ‎when the pair of parameters $(lambda,mu)$ belongs to a c...

This study concerns the existence and multiplicity of positive weak solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. Our results is depending on the local minimization method on the Nehari manifold and some variational techniques. Also, by using Mountain Pass Lemma, we establish the existence of at least one solution with positive energy.
