Abstract
Let be an elliptic curve. The reduced minimal model of is a global minimal model which satisfies the additional conditions that and . The reduced minimal model of is unique, and in this article, we explicitly classify the reduced minimal model of an elliptic curve with a non-trivial torsion point. We obtain this classification by first showing that the reduced minimal model of is uniquely determined by a congruence on modulo . We then apply this result to parameterized families of elliptic curves to deduce our main result. We also show that the reduction at and of affects the reduced minimal model of .
