Abstract
We study the number of elliptic curves, up to isomorphism, over a fixed quartic field having a prescribed torsion group as a subgroup. Let , where , be a torsion group such that the modular curve is an elliptic curve. Let be a number field such that there is a positive and finite number of elliptic curves over having as a subgroup. We call such pairs \emph{exceptional}. It is known that there are only finitely many exceptional pairs when varies through all quadratic or cubic fields. We prove that when varies through all quartic fields, there exist infinitely many exceptional pairs when or and finitely many otherwise.
