We give algorithms to compute Coleman integrals on superelliptic curves over unramified extensions of the p-adics, and apply these via Chabauty methods to determine the set of rational points on such curves.
We also determine the solution to an explicit instance of the Shafarevich conjecture by finding all elliptic curves with good reduction outside of the first 6 primes, subject to a heuristic.
We use a combination of non-abelian Chabauty and the Mordell--Weil sieve to determine the rational points on several quotient modular curves, and therefore classify pairs of elliptic curves over the rationals with 67-, 73-, and 107-isogenies.
We give methods to explicitly compute Coleman integrals on modular curves using a canonical lift of Frobenius and canonical local coordinates in each residue disk, and discuss the problem of computing the Weil pairing in finite rings.
