Abstract: For a fixed odd prime p and a representation ho of the absolute Galois group of Q into the projective group PGL(2,p), we provide the twisted modular curves whose rational points supply the quadratic Q-curves of degree N prime to p that realize ho through the Galois action on their p-torsion modules. The modular curve to twist is either the fiber product of the modular curves X_0(N) and X(p) or a certain quotient of Atkin-Lehner type, depending on the value of N mod p. For our purposes, a special care must be taken in fixing rational models for these modular curves and in studying their automorphisms. By performing some genus computations, we obtain from Faltings' theorem some finiteness results on the number of quadratic Q-curves of a given degree N realizing ho.

Review text

An elliptic curve \(E\) is called \(\mathbb Q\)-curve if it is defined over \(\overline{\mathbb Q}\), it does not have complex multiplication and is isogenous to each of its conjugates \(^\sigma E\) for every \(\sigma\in G_{\mathbb Q}=\text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb Q}/{\mathbb Q})\). A quadratic \(\mathbb Q\)-curve is defined over a quadratic number field. For a fixed odd prime \(p\) and a representation \(\rho\) of \(G_{\mathbb Q}\) into the projective group \(\text{PGL}_2({\mathbb F}_p)\) the author provides the twisted modular curves whose rational points supply the quadratic \(\mathbb Q\)-curves of degree \(N\) prime to \(p\) that realize \(\rho\) through the Galois action on their \(p\)-torsion modules. The modular curve to twist is either the fiber product of \(X_0(N)\) and \(X(p)\) or a certain quotient of Atkin-Lehner type, depending on the value of \(N\) modulo \(p\).
