Big prime factors in orders of elliptic curves over finite fields

Abstract

Let EE be an elliptic curve over the finite field Fq\mathbb F_q. We prove that, when nn is a sufficiently large positive integer, #E(Fqn)\#E(\mathbb F_{q^n}) has a prime factor exceeding nexp(clogn/loglogn)n\exp(c\log n/\log\log n).
