Tables of elliptic curves of given rank

The default database of curves contains the following data:

Rank	Number of curves	Maximal conductor
0	30427	9999
1	31871	9999
2	2388	9999
3	836	119888
4	1	234446
5	1	19047851
6	1	5187563742
7	1	382623908456
8	1	457532830151317

rank(rank, tors=0, n=10, labels=False)

Return a list of at most non-isogenous curves with given rank and torsion order.

INPUT:

• rank (int) – the desired rank
• tors (int, default 0) – the desired torsion order (ignored if 0)
• n (int, default 10) – the maximum number of curves returned.
• labels (bool, default False) – if True, return Cremona labels instead of curves.

OUTPUT:

(list) A list at most of elliptic curves of required rank.

EXAMPLES:

sage: elliptic_curves.rank(n=5, rank=3, tors=2, labels=True)
['59450i1', '59450i2', '61376c1', '61376c2', '65481c1']

sage: elliptic_curves.rank(n=5, rank=0, tors=5, labels=True)
['11a1', '11a3', '38b1', '50b1', '50b2']

sage: elliptic_curves.rank(n=5, rank=1, tors=7, labels=True)
['574i1', '4730k1', '6378c1']
