The modular degree, congruence primes, and multiplicity one

Abstract: Abstract.The modular degree and congruence number are two fundamental invariants of an elliptic curve over the rational field. Frey and Müller have asked whether these invariants coincide. We find that the question has a negative answer, and show that in the counterexamples, multiplicity one (defined below) does not hold. At the same time, we prove a theorem about the relation between the two invariants: the modular degree divides the congruence number, and the ratio is divisible only by primes whose squares d… Show more

“…The result in this form follows from [34] and [16]: see [33,Theorem 6.4] for details. Explicit formulas relating L K ( f , χ , 1) and L( f , χ ) can be found in [13] in a special case and in [35] in the greatest generality. 2…”

“…More precisely, we offer an alternative proof of Theorem 1.4 (Kolyvagin). If L K (E, 1) = 0 then the Mordell-Weil group E(K ) is finite and Sel p (E/K ) = X p (E/K ) = 0 for all but finitely many primes p.…”

“…If J 0 is an abelian subvariety of J that is preserved by End J, then by Ann TnQ J 0 we mean the kernel of the image of T n Q in End J 0 n Q. Note that End J preserves J g (e.g., see [6], §3) and Ann TnQ J g ¼ Ann TnQ S ½g . If T is a subset of the set of Galois conjugacy classes of newforms of some level dividing N, then let S T ¼ L ½g A T S ½g , I T ¼ Ann T S T , and let J T denote the abelian subvariety of J generated by the J g for all ½g A T. Then J T is isogenous to Q ½g A T J g , hence is preserved by End J and moreover, Ann TnQ J T ¼ Ann TnQ S T .…”

“…The congruence number is closely related to deg φ f E , the modular degree of f E , which is the degree of the minimal parametrization φ f E : X 0 (p) → E of the strong Weil elliptic curve E /Q associated with f E (E is isogenous to E but they may not be equal). In general, deg φ f E |D E , and if the conductor of E is prime, we have that deg φ f E = D E (see [1]). …”
