| contents | In this note, we show that to each elliptic curve of the form $$y^2-axy-y=x^3-bx^2-cx,$$ we can associate a family of lattice paths whose step set is determined by the parameters of the elliptic curve. The enumeration of these lattice paths is by means of an associated Riordan array. The curves and the paths have associated Somos $4$ sequences which are essentially the same. For the curves the link to Somos $4$ sequences is a classical result, via the elliptic divisibility sequence. For the paths the link is via a Hankel transform. |
