On the embedding problem for 2^+S₄ representations

Publication date 13 September 2007

Abstract: Let

2^{+} S_{4}

denote the double cover of

S_{4}

corresponding to the element in

where transpositions lift to elements of order 2 and the product of two disjoint transpositions to elements of order 4 (denoted

i l d e S_{4}

in cite{Serre}). Given an elliptic curve

E

, let

E [2]

denote its 2-torsion points. Under some conditions on

E

(as in cite{Bayer}) elements in

correspond to Galois extensions

N

of

Q

with Galois group (isomorphic to)

S_{4}

. On this work we give an interpretation of the addition law on such fields, and prove that the obstruction for

N

having a Galois extension

i l d e N

with

G a l (i l d e N / Q) s i m e q 2^{+} S_{4}

gives an homomorphism

. As a Corollary we can prove (if

E

has conductor divisible by few primes and high rank) the existence of 1
