Rational Equivalences on Products of Elliptic Curves in a Family
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Volume 32 (2020) no. 3, pp. 923-938.

Given a pair of elliptic curves E 1 ,E 2 over a field k, we have a natural map CH 1 (E 1 ) 0 CH 1 (E 2 ) 0 CH 2 (E 1 ×E 2 ), and a conjecture due to Bloch and Beilinson predicts that the image of this map is finite when k is a number field. We construct a 2-parameter family of elliptic curves that can be used to produce examples of pairs E 1 ,E 2 where this image is finite. The family is constructed to guarantee the existence of a rational curve passing through a specified point in the Kummer surface of E 1 ×E 2 .

Si E 1 et E 2 sont deux courbes elliptiques sur un corps k, nous avons une application naturelle CH 1 (E 1 ) 0 CH 1 (E 2 ) 0 CH 2 (E 1 ×E 2 ). Quand k est un corps de nombres, une conjecture due à Bloch et Beilinson prédit que l’image de cette application est finie. Nous construisons une famille de courbes elliptiques à deux paramètres qui peut être utilisée pour produire des exemples de couples E 1 ,E 2 pour lesquels cette image est finie. La famille est définie pour garantir l’existence d’une courbe rationnelle passant par un point spécifié de la surface de Kummer de E 1 ×E 2 .
