Let \(K\) be a number field, and \(E\) an elliptic curve over \(K\); we call ``torsion subgroup of \(E\)'' the torsion subgroup \(E(K)_{\text{tors}}\) of the group \(E(K)\) of rational points of \(E\). This paper (a PhD thesis) deals with two problems: 1) Which are the possible torsion subgroups of an elliptic curve over number fields of type (2,\dots,2), i.e. abelian 2-extensions of \({\mathbb Q}\)? 2) Which is the order of maximal torsion of an elliptic curve \(E\) over a number field \(K\) in the \(K\)-isogeny class of \(E\)? As for question 1), let \(F:= {\mathbb Q}(\{\sqrt m | m\in {\mathbb Z}\})\); then in the paper, when \(E({\mathbb Q})_{\text{tors}}\) is non-cyclic, the torsion subgroups of \(E\) over \(F\) and also over all elementary abelian 2-extensions of \({\mathbb Q}\) are determined. About question 2): if \(C(E)\) is the \(K\)-isogeny class of \(E\), for each prime \(l\) the author gives a description of the orders of the \(l\)-primary part \(E(K)_{l}\) of \(E(K)_{\text{tors}}\) which are maximal in \(C(E)\). This result allows also to find the order of maximal \(l\)-torsion of \(E\) over \(K\) in \(C(E)\).
