Abstract :The theory of elliptic curves is one of the popular topics of recent times with its unsolved problems and interesting conjectures. In 1922, Mordell proved that the group of $\\mathbb{Q}$-rational points on an elliptic curve is finitely generated. However, the rank of this group, signifying the number of independent generators, can be arbitrarily high for certain curves, a fact yet to be definitively proven. This study leverages the computer algebra system Magma to investigate curves with potentially high ranks using a technique developed by Mestre.Keywords : Mestre method, elliptic curve, rank, height matrix, magma
