Abstract: We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])capK(E[m_2])$ is a non-abelian extension of $K$. There is an infinite set $mathcalS$ of modular curves whose $K$-rational points capture all elliptic curves over $K$ without complex multiplication that have this property. Our main theorem explicitly describes the (finite) subset of $mathcalS$ consisting of those modular curves having genus zero. In the case $K=mathbbQ$, this has applications to the problem of determining when the Galois representation on the torsion of $E$ is as large as possible modulo a prescribed obstruction; we illustrate this application with a specific example.
