Let $k$ be a number field with algebraic closure $ \overline{k} $, and let $S$ be a finite set of primes of $k$ containing all the infinite ones. Let $E/ k$ be an elliptic curve, ${\mit{\Gamma} }_{0} $ be a finitely generated subgroup of $E( \overline{k} )$, and $\mit{\Gamma} \subseteq E( \overline{k} )$ the division group attached to ${\mit{\Gamma} }_{0} $. Fix an effective divisor $D$ of $E$ with support containing either: (i) at least two points whose difference is not torsion; or (ii) at least one point not in $\mit{\Gamma} $. We prove that the set of ‘integral division points on $E( \overline{k} )$’, i.e., the set of points of $\mit{\Gamma} $ which are $S$-integral on $E$ relative to $D, $ is finite. We also prove the ${ \mathbb{G} }_{\mathrm{m} } $-analogue of this theorem, thereby establishing the 1-dimensional case of a general conjecture we pose on integral division points on semi-abelian varieties.

Fix an elliptic curve $E/\mathbf{Q}$and assume the Riemann Hypothesis for the $L$-function $L({{E}_{D}},\,s)$ for every quadratic twist ${{E}_{D}}$ of $E$ by $D\,\in \,\mathbf{Z}$. We combine Weil's explicit formula with techniques of Heath-Brown to derive an asymptotic upper bound for the weighted moments of the analytic rank of ${{E}_{D}}$. We derive from this an upper bound for the density of low-lying zeros of $L({{E}_{D}},\,s)$ that is compatible with the randommatrixmodels of Katz and Sarnak. We also show that for any unbounded increasing function $f$ on $\mathbf{R}$, the analytic rank and (assuming in addition the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture) the number of integral points of ${{E}_{D}}$ are less than $f(D)$ for almost all $D$.
