Abstract

Let K be a number field and L a finite abelian extension of K. Let E be an elliptic curve defined over K. The restriction of scalars ResKLE decomposes (up to isogeny) into abelian varieties over K $$Res^L_KE{\sim}{\bigoplus_{F{\in}S}}A_F,$$ where S is the set of cyclic extensions of K in L. It is known that if L is a quadratic extension, then AL is the quadratic twist of E. In this paper, we consider the case that K is a number field containing a primitive third root of unity, $L=K({\sqrt[3]{D}})$ is the cyclic cubic extension of K for some D ∈ K×/(K×)3, E = Ea : y2 = x3 + a is an elliptic curve with j-invariant 0 defined over K, and EaD : y2 = x3 + aD2 is the cubic twist of Ea. In this case, we prove AL is isogenous over K to $E_a^D{\times}E_a^{D^2}$ and a property of the Selmer rank of AL, which is a cubic analogue of a theorem of Mazur and Rubin on quadratic twists.
