Points on Shimura curves rational over imaginary quadratic fields in the non-split case

For an imaginary quadratic field $k$ of class number $>1$, we prove that there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of rational indefinite quaternion division algebras $B$ such that the associated Shimura curve $M^B$ has $k$-rational points. In other words, the main result asserts that there is a finite set $P(k)$ of prime numbers depending on $k$ such that: if there is a prime divisor of the discriminant of $B$ which is not in $P(k)$, then $M^B$ has no $k$-rational points. Moreover, we can take $P(k)$ to satisfy the following: There is an effectively computable constant $C(k)$ depending on $k$ such that $p\in P(k)$ implies $p<C(k)$ with at most one possible exception. The case where $k$ splits $B$ was done by Jordan. In the non-split case, the proof is done by studying a canonical isogeny character and its composition with the transfer map.
