Modular covers of positive-rank elliptic curves
A dated inventory of LMFDB-recorded parent-cover endpoint pairs and route witnesses, with verified examples clearly separated from database observations.
At a glance
The strict research view
Counts refer to distinct source–target endpoint pairs after the published filters. Quartic route witnesses are counted separately from endpoints.

Checked in depth
Serious candidates
Each card states the strongest formal status justified today. “Featured in the paper” is a separate editorial marker and never upgrades a proof status.

Strict filtered cover inventory
Every row is an endpoint pair remaining after the linked-target, recorded rank-bounds [1,1], genus, and gonality filters. Open its details for the exact index witness, provenance hashes, and verification state.

Quartic factorizations
Recorded two-step witnesses
At the graph level, a chain C → M → E of two recorded index-two parent relations is retained as a degree-four route witness. It is not by itself proof of an explicit geometric map. Different witnesses can share an endpoint pair; parent positions and conjugators keep their identities exact.
Swipe or scroll horizontally to inspect the full witness.

Stage 3
Unlinked genus-one target ledger
Target labels are grouped across their incident degree-3 and degree-5 boundary records. Resolved rows record a pointed elliptic model and algebraic rank; they do not certify any incident parent map.

Stages 4–5
From a database row to a theorem
The proof ledger uses explicit enum states: verified, not verified, not checked, and not applicable. Only selected serious candidates have a completed ledger.
Map degree
Exact geometric degree, beyond a bare index ratio.
Target model
A pointed Weierstrass model for the actual target.
Algebraic rank
Certified positive rank; analytic rank is not substituted.
Geometric gonality
An independently justified lower bound over Q̅.
Genus hypothesis
The strict inequality required by the theorem.
Discriminant divisor
The trace-discriminant divisor on the smooth cover.
Derangement
The fixed-point-free condition on the odd support.
Rational-fibre reduction
The exact route controlling lower-degree fibres.
Density theorem
Applicability of the stated field-density conclusion.
How the inventory is made
Scope and evidence
This is an exact report on specified fields in a dated database snapshot. It is a discovery resource; proof claims live in separate, evidence-linked candidate records.
Target policy
Strict linked rows retain the recorded elliptic identification and recorded rank bounds [1,1]. Missing target data remains missing.
Gonality filter
The lower recorded geometric-gonality bound is at least 4, 5, or 6 for degrees 3, 4, or 5 respectively.
Graph witnesses
Prime-degree rows use recorded parents. Quartic composites retain every recorded two-by-two chain separately.
Immutable provenance
Normalized and raw-record hashes, source files, queries, and evidence IDs travel with the public edition.
Read, audit, and reuse
Data and documentation
Start with the mathematical guide, then choose the normalized tables or provenance package needed for an independent audit.

Unlinked boundary and workbook
Boundary rows are target-only records, not strict cover examples. Some targets now have independently resolved pointed elliptic models and rank; no incident parent map is promoted by that resolution. The degree ledgers remain separate so unresolved models and untouched cover gates stay visible.
