Abstract

Let NN be a positive integer and let J0(N)J_0(N) be the Jacobian variety of the modular curve X0(N)X_0(N). For any prime p5p\ge 5 whose square does not divide NN, we prove that the pp-primary subgroup of the rational torsion subgroup of J0(N)J_0(N) is equal to that of the rational cuspidal divisor class group of X0(N)X_0(N), which is explicitly computed in \cite{Yoo9}. Also, we prove the same assertion holds for p=3p=3 under the extra assumption that either NN is not divisible by 33 or there is a prime divisor of NN congruent to 1-1 modulo 33.
