Elliptic Curve Rank Leaderboard

Mestre ten-root construction, roots 0,1,82,98,99,107,111,113,176,183: with p(x) = prod (x - a_i), write p = q^2 - r with q a monic quintic and deg r <= 4; the genus-one curve y^2 = r(x) carries the ten points (a_i, q(a_i)), and the curve submitted is the minimal Weierstrass model of its Jacobian. Found by enumerating integer ten-root sets 0 = a_1 < ... < a_10 and scoring each by S = sum of -a_p log(p)/p over the good primes 5 <= p <= 199 (with early abort on low partial sums); for the sets with S >= 31, or S >= 30 and one bad prime in that range, or S >= 29 and two or more bad primes, rational points were found by a point search on the quartic y^2 = r(x), and the curves were screened by conductor and by a GRH explicit-formula upper bound on the rank. Rank >= 15: the 15 listed points come from the point search and are independent (height matrix nonsingular at 57 and 115 digits). Torsion trivial.
