In this paper, we study the denominators of the x-coordinates of this sequence. We prove that, if Q is a torsion point of prime order, then for n large enough there always exists a primitive divisor. Later on, we show the link between the study of the primitive divisors and a Lang-Trotter conjecture. Indeed, given two points P and Q on the elliptic curve, we prove a lower bound for the number of primes p such that P is in the orbit of Q modulo p."}],"publication":"Journal of Number Theory","publication_status":"published","_id":"12310","author":[{"first_name":"Matteo","full_name":"Verzobio, Matteo","orcid":"0000-0002-0854-0306","last_name":"Verzobio","id":"7aa8f170-131e-11ed-88e1-a9efd01027cb"}],"doi":"10.1016/j.jnt.2019.09.003"}
