Abstract

We prove that many representations ρ:Gal(K/K)GL2(F3)\overline{\rho} : \operatorname{Gal}(\overline{K} / K) \to \operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_3), where KK is a CM field, arise from modular elliptic curves. We prove similar results when the prime p=3p = 3 is replaced by p=2p = 2 or p=5p = 5. As a consequence, we prove that a positive proportion of elliptic curves over any CM field not containing a 5th root of unity are modular.
