Streszczenie
Take a rational elliptic curve defined by the equation $y^2=x^3+ax$ in minimal form and consider the sequence $B_n$ of the denominators of the abscissas of the iterate of a non-torsion point. We show that $B_{5m}$ has a primitive divisor for every $m$. Then, we show how to generalize this method to the terms of the form $B_{mp}$ with $p$ a prime congruent to $1$ modulo $4$.
