Abstract
We discuss the distribution of Mordell–Weil ranks of the family of elliptic curves y^2 = (x + αf^2)(x + βg^2)(x + γh^2) where f, g, h are coprime polynomials that parametrize the projective smooth conic a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and α, β, γ are elements from Qbar. In our previous papers we discussed certain special cases of this problem and in this article we complete the picture by proving the general results.
