  1. Abstract We characterize Borel line graphs in terms of 10 forbidden induced subgraphs, namely the nine finite graphs from the classical result of Beineke together with a 10th infinite graph associated with the equivalence relation$$\mathbb {E}_0$$on the Cantor space. As a corollary, we prove a partial converse to the Feldman–Moore theorem, which allows us to characterize all locally countable Borel line graphs in terms of their Borel chromatic numbers.

  2. Let E E be an elliptic curve over Q \mathbb {Q} with Mordell–Weil rank 2 2 and p p be an odd prime of good ordinary reduction. For every imaginary quadratic field K K satisfying the Heegner hypothesis, there is (subject to the Shafarevich–Tate conjecture) a line, i.e., a free Z p \mathbb {Z}_p -submodule of rank 1 1 , in E ( K ) ⊗<#comment/> Z p E(K)\otimes \mathbb {Z}_p given by universal norms coming from the Mordell–Weil groups of subfields of the anticyclotomic Z p \mathbb {Z}_p -extension of K K ; we call it theshadow line. When the twist of E E by K K has analytic rank 1 1 , the shadow line is conjectured to lie in E ( Q ) ⊗<#comment/> Z p E(\mathbb {Q})\otimes \mathbb {Z}_p ; we verify this computationally in all our examples. We study the distribution of shadow lines in E ( Q ) ⊗<#comment/> Z p E(\mathbb {Q})\otimes \mathbb {Z}_p as K K varies, framing conjectures based on the computations we have made.
