Average Analytic Ranks of Elliptic Curves over Number Fields by Tristan Phillips

“…A key ingredient in the proof is giving asymptotics for the number of elliptic curves over an arbitrary number field with a prescribed local condition; these results are obtained by proving general results for counting points of bounded height on weighted projective stacks with a prescribed local condition, which may be of independent interest.…”
