Theorem · version 1

Strong BSD would determine Sha’s order from the other invariants

Earlier version 1. View current version 2 →

Statement

For an E/Q satisfying strong BSD, #Sha(E/Q) = [L^{(r)}(E,1)/r!] · #E(Q)_tors² / [Ω_E Reg_E ∏_{ℓ finite} c_ℓ(E)], with r = rank E(Q) and the stated full-L and Néron conventions.

Assumptions

  • Strong BSD for the particular E/Q, including Sha finiteness.
  • Compatible normalizations and certified values of the other inputs are required to recover an exact order.

Scope

An algebraic rearrangement of the conjectural leading-term formula under its premise; approximating an L-value does not certify the integer.

Conditional implication · Proved

Source-grounded deduction from the normalized strong formula, not an independently proved general formula for Sha.

Scope: The leading-term formula would recover Sha’s order from compatible certified invariants.

Limit: The full formula and finiteness remain unproved in general. A decimal comparison alone is insufficient.

A consequence under an open premise, not an additional resolved part of that premise.

Relationship not independently reviewed. This concerns its use in this problem.
