Quadratic-twist parity conjecture for elliptic curves

About 14 years old · traced to

Let EE be an elliptic curve over Q\mathbf Q with conductor NEN_E, and let dd be a squarefree integer coprime to 2⋅NE2\cdot N_E. Write EdE_d for the quadratic twist of EE by dd, and let χd\chi_d be the quadratic Dirichlet character associated to the field Q(d)\mathbf Q(\sqrt d). Quadratic-twist parity conjecture.

(−1)rank⁡Ed(Q)=(−1)rank⁡E(Q)⋅χd(−NE).(-1)^{\operatorname{rank} E_d(\mathbf Q)}=(-1)^{\operatorname{rank} E(\mathbf Q)}\cdot\chi_d(-N_E).

This is the twist-sensitive version of the parity conjecture used in the paper to obtain evidence for the squarefree-value residue class conjecture in low degrees. It is presented as a conjectural input rather than proved in the source.
