Abstract

Let E\mathcal{E} be a CM elliptic curve defined over a number field KK, with Weiestrass form y3=x3+bxy^3=x^3+bx or y2=x3+cy^2=x^3+c. For every positive integer mm, we denote by E[m]{\mathcal{E}}[m] the mm-torsion subgroup of E{\mathcal{E}} and by Km:=K(E[m])K_m:=K({\mathcal{E}}[m]) the mm-th division field, i.e. the extension of KK generated by the coordinates of the points in E[m]{\mathcal{E}}[m]. We classify all fields K7K_7. In particular we give explicit generators for K7/KK_7/K and produce all Galois groups Gal(K7/K){\textrm{Gal}}(K_7/K). We also show some applications to the Local-Global Divisibility Problem and to modular curves.
