Elliptic curves and spin

In the early 2000s, Ramakrishna asked the question: For the elliptic curve $$E: y^2 = x^3 - x,$$ what is the density of primes $p$ for which the Fourier coefficient $a_p(E)$ is a cube modulo $p$? As a generalization of this question, Weston--Zaurova formulated conjectures concerning the distribution of power residues of degree $m$ of the Fourier coefficients of elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with complex multiplication. In this paper, we prove their conjecture for cubic residues using the analytic theory of spin. Our proof works for all elliptic curves $E$ with complex multiplication.
