Abstract

In this work, we studied properties of elliptic curves over Q, their associated TateShafarevich groups and Selmer groups, with an eye towards a result by Bhargava, Skinner e Zhang (2014, p. 1, Theorem 1) which states that the majority (over 66 percent) of such elliptic curves, when ordered by height, satisfies the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, one of the main open problems in modern Number Theory.
