A method for construction of rational points over elliptic curves

Abstract

I provide a systematic construction of points (defined over number fields) on Legendre elliptic curves over Q: for any odd integer n≥ 3 my method constructs n points on the Legendre curve and I show that rank of the subgroup of the Mordell-Weil group they generate is n if n≥ 7. I also show that every elliptic curve over any number field admits similar type of points after a finite base extension.
