摘 要:We study the classification of elliptic curves E over the rationals Q according to the torsion subgroups E_(tors)(Q). More precisely, we classify those elliptic curves with E_(tors)(Q) being cyclic with even orders. We also give explicit formulas for generators of E_(tors)(Q). These results, together with the recent results of K. Ono for the non-cyclic E_(tors)(Q), completely solve the problem of the explicit classification and parameterization when E has a rational point of order 2.
