AbstractWe give an explicit recipe for the determination of the images associated to the Galois action on p-torsion points of elliptic curves. We present a table listing the image for all the elliptic curves defined over without complex multiplication with conductor less than 200 and for each prime number p.

In this paper we prove that for every integer [Formula: see text], there exists an explicit constant [Formula: see text] such that the following holds. Let [Formula: see text] be a number field of degree [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be any rational prime that is totally inert in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] any elliptic curve defined over [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] has potentially multiplicative reduction at the prime [Formula: see text] above [Formula: see text]. Then for every rational prime [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] has an irreducible mod [Formula: see text] Galois representation. This result has Diophantine applications within the “modular method”. We present one such application in the form of an Asymptotic version of Fermat’s Last Theorem that has not been covered in the existing literature.

Given a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over an arithmetic surface, one obtains a lisse $\ell$-adic sheaf of rank two over the surface. This lisse sheaf has a number of straightforward properties: cyclotomic determinant, finite ramification, rational traces of Frobenius elements, and somewhere not potentially good reduction. We prove that any lisse sheaf of rank two possessing these properties comes from an elliptic curve.

AbstractLet E be an elliptic curve defined over ℚ, of conductor N and without complex multiplication. For any positive integer l, let ϕl be the Galois representation associated to the l-division points of E. From a celebrated 1972 result of Serre we know that ϕl is surjective for any sufficiently large prime l. In this paper we find conditional and unconditional upper bounds in terms of N for the primes l for which ϕl is not surjective.

AbstractThe theory of isogeny estimates for Abelian varieties provides ‘additive bounds’ of the form ‘d is at most B’ for the degrees d of certain isogenies. We investigate whether these can be improved to ‘multiplicative bounds’ of the form ‘d divides B’. We find that in general the answer is no (Theorem 1), but that sometimes the answer is yes (Theorem 2). Further we apply the affirmative result to the study of exceptional primes ℒ in connexion with modular Galois representations coming from elliptic curves: we prove that the additive bounds for ℒ of Masser and Wüstholz (1993) can be improved to multiplicative bounds (Theorem 3).
