Constructing Non-Trivial Elements of the Shafarevich-Tate Group of an Abelian Variety

The Shafarevich-Tate group of an elliptic curve is an important invariant of the curve whose conjectural finiteness can sometimes be used to determine the rank of the curve. The second part of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer (BSD) conjecture gives a conjectural formula for the order of the Shafarevich...
