Abstract: Following Kraitchik and Lehmer, we say that a positive integer is an -pseudosquare if it is a quadratic residue for each odd prime , yet is not a square. We extend this defintion to algebraic curves and say that is an -pseudopoint of a curve (where ) if for all sufficiently large primes the congruence is satisfied for some . We use the Bombieri bound of exponential sums along a curve to estimate the smallest -pseudopoint, which shows the limitations of the modular approach to searching for points on curves.
