Local data of rational elliptic curves with non-trivial torsion

Published 21 Apr 2021 in math.NT | (2104.10337v2)

Abstract: By Mazur's Torsion Theorem, there are fourteen possibilities for the non-trivial torsion subgroup $T$ of a rational elliptic curve. For each $T$, such that $E$ may have additive reduction at a prime $p$, we consider a parameterized family $E_T$ of elliptic curves with the property that they parameterize all elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ which contain $T$ in their torsion subgroup. Using these parameterized families, we explicitly classify the Kodaira-N\'{e}ron type, the conductor exponent, and the local Tamagawa number at each prime $p$ where $E/\mathbb{Q}$ has additive reduction. As a consequence, we find all rational elliptic curves with a $2$-torsion or a $3$-torsion point that have global Tamagawa number $1$.
