The size of 2-Selmer groups for the π3-congruent number problem

Abstract

Our main objective in this paper is to study the average rank of the 2-Selmer group of the elliptic curve associated with the π3-congruent number problem. Following Heath-Brown's strategy, we could find an asymptotic formula for the size of the relaxed 2-Selmer groups, which has several consequences towards the average of 2-Selmer ranks and π3-congruent number problem. Indeed, we could find an unconditional positive density of 2-Selmer rank being 1 or 3, among the positive square-free integers n 1324 having all the prime divisors congruent to 1 modulo 4 and an unconditional positive density of 2-Selmer rank being 0 or 2, among the positive square-free integers n 524 having all the prime divisors congruent to 1 modulo 4.
