Abstract

In this paper we present a method which, given a singular point (j1,j2)(j_1, j_2) on Y0()Y_0(\ell) with j1,j20,1728j_1, j_2 \neq 0, 1728 and an elliptic curve EE with jj-invariant j1{j_1}, returns an elliptic curve E~\widetilde{E} with jj-invariant j2{j_2} that admits a normalized \ell-isogeny ϕ ⁣:EE~\phi\colon E\to \widetilde{E}. The isogeny ϕ\phi can then be efficiently computed from EE and E~\widetilde{E} using an algorithm of Bostan, Morain, Salvy, and Schost.
