Q-curves over odd degree number fields

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2235202



Abstract: By reformulating and extending results of Elkies, we prove some results on mathbbQ-curves over number fields of odd degree. We show that, over such fields, the only prime isogeny degrees~ell which an elliptic curve without CM may have are those degrees which are already possible over~mathbbQ itself (in particular, ellle37), and we show the existence of a bound on the degrees of cyclic isogenies between mathbbQ-curves depending only on the degree of the field. We also prove that the only possible torsion groups of mathbbQ-curves over number fields of degree not divisible by a prime ellleq7 are the 15 groups that appear as torsion groups of elliptic curves over mathbbQ. Complementing these theoretical results we give an algorithm for establishing whether any given elliptic curve E is a mathbbQ-curve, which involves working only over mathbbQ(j(E)).
