Abstract: In the context of the generalised Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, one considers the value at $s=1$ of the L-function of an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ twisted by a Dirichlet character $\chi$. When normalised with a period, one obtains an algebraic number $\mathscr{L}(E,\chi)$. In joint work with Hanneke Wiersema, we determine under what conditions $\mathscr{L}(E,\chi)$ is an algebraic integer.
