Kolyvagin has shown how to study the Shafarevich-Tate group of elliptic curves over imaginary quadratic fields via Kolyvagin classes constructed from Heegner points. One way to produce explicit non-trivial elements of the Shafarevich-Tate group is by proving that a locally trivial Kolyvagin class is globally non-trivial, which is difficult in practice. We provide a method for testing whether an explicit element of the Shafarevich-Tate group represented by a Kolyvagin class is globally non-trivial by determining whether the Cassels pairing between the class and another locally trivial Kolyvagin class is non-zero. Our algorithm explicitly computes Heegner points over ring class fields to produce the Kolyvagin classes and uses the efficiently computable cryptographic Tate pairing.
