Supersingular distribution on average for congruence classes of primes

Number Theory 2013-07-23 v1

Abstract

We demonstrate the existence of a congruence class bias in the distribution of supersingular primes on average for elliptic curves over \Q\Q. For example, we show that on average there are twice as many supersingular primes congruent to 2 mod 3 as there are congruent to 1 mod 3. Our result is obtained using the averaging approach of Fouvry-Murty along with ideas of David-Pappalardi.
