New isogenies of elliptic curves over number fields

Number Theory 2025-08-14 v3

Abstract

Using Galois representations, we analyze fields of definition of cyclic isogenies on elliptic curves to prove the following uniformity result: for any number field FF which has no rational CM, under GRH there exists an effectively computable constant B:=B(F)Z+B:=B(F)\in\mathbb{Z}^+ such that for any finite extension L/FL/F whose degree [L:F][L:F] is coprime to BB, one has for all elliptic curves E/FE_{/F} that any LL-rational isogeny on EE is FF-rational. For any number field FF, under GRH we also prove results for the mod-\ell Galois representations of non-CM elliptic curves with an FF-rational isogeny of uniformly large prime degree \ell.
