Abstract

In this paper we will study points of order 3 on elliptic curves defined over perfect fields of characteristic 3. First, there is a short introduction on elliptic curves and related concepts. After this, we distinguish the two forms elliptic curves over characteristic 3 can have. We then do specific computations for points of order 3 in these forms. Finally, we classify elliptic curves that contain points of order 3 in characteristic 3 by showing that any elliptic curve with a point of order 3 is isomorphic to some curve in a certain family of elliptic curves. These points of order 3 can be K-rational, for which the work has already been done, but they can also be K( √ d)-rational for some quadratic extension K( √ d) of K.
