2.5 Rank of Elliptic Curves

Page 55: The current recond for the rank of elliptic curves over Q is the curve with rank ≥ 29 found by N. Elkies and Z. Klagsbrun in August 2024:

y2 + xy = x3 - 27006183241630922218434652145297453784768054621836357954737385x

Table 2.1 on p.56 and Table 2.2 on p.71 should be updated accordingly.

3.11 Exercises

Concering Exercise 12 on page 166, let us mention that in the recent paper:
A. Dujella, M. Kazalicki, V. Petričević, Rational Diophantine sextuples with strong pair, preprint, 2024,
it is shown that there exist infinitely many rational Diophantine sextuples {a,b,c,d,e,f} with the property that a2+1 and b2+1 are perfect squares.

5.1 Existence of D(n)-quadruples

Page 282, line 2: } is missing after 20. (Thanks to Mihai Cipu.)

5.2 Bounds for the Size of D(n)-tuples

Page 294, Remark 5.2.13: In the recent paper
C. H. Yip, Improved upper bounds on Diophantine tuples with the property D(n), preprint, 2024,
it is shown that Bn = O(log log |n|) and Mn ≤ (2+o(1)) log |n|.
