Primitive Divisors of Certain Elliptic Divisibility Sequences

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let PP be a non-torsion point on the elliptic curve Ea:y2=x3+axE_{a}: y^{2}=x^{3}+ax. We show that if aa is fourth-power-free and either n>2n>2 is even or n>1n>1 is odd with x(P)<0x(P)<0 or x(P)x(P) a perfect square, then the nn-th element of the elliptic divisibility sequence generated by PP always has a primitive divisor.
