This module defines the class EllipticCurve_field, based on EllipticCurve_generic, for elliptic curves over general fields.

class sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.ell_field.EllipticCurve_field(R, data, category=None)[source]#

Bases: EllipticCurve_generic, ProjectivePlaneCurve_field

Constructor for elliptic curves over fields.

Identical to the constructor for elliptic curves over general rings, except for setting the default category to AbelianVarieties.

descend_to(K, f=None)[source]#

Given an elliptic curve self defined over a field \(L\) and a subfield \(K\) of \(L\), return all elliptic curves over \(K\) which are isomorphic over \(L\) to self.

INPUT:

  • \(K\) – a field which embeds into the base field \(L\) of self.

  • \(f\) (optional) – an embedding of \(K\) into \(L\). Ignored if \(K\) is \(\QQ\).

OUTPUT:

A list (possibly empty) of elliptic curves defined over \(K\) which are isomorphic to self over \(L\), up to isomorphism over \(K\).

Note

Currently only implemented over number fields. To extend to other fields of characteristic not 2 or 3, what is needed is a method giving the preimages in \(K^*/(K^*)^m\) of an element of the base field, for \(m=2,4,6\).

division_field(n, names='t', map=False, **kwds)[source]#

Given an elliptic curve over a number field or finite field \(F\) and a positive integer \(n\), construct the \(n\)-division field \(F(E[n])\).

The \(n\)-division field is the smallest extension of \(F\) over which all \(n\)-torsion points of \(E\) are defined.

INPUT:

  • \(n\) – a positive integer

  • names – (default: 't') a variable name for the division field

  • map – (default: False) also return an embedding of the base_field() into the resulting field

  • kwds – additional keyword arguments passed to splitting_field()

OUTPUT:

If map is False, the division field \(K\) as an absolute number field or a finite field. If map is True, a tuple \((K, \phi)\) where \(\phi\) is an embedding of the base field in the division field \(K\).

Warning

This can take a very long time when the degree of the division field is large (e.g. when \(n\) is large or when the Galois representation is surjective). The simplify flag also has a big influence on the running time over number fields: sometimes simplify=False is faster, sometimes the default simplify=True is faster.

EXAMPLES:

The 2-division field is the same as the splitting field of the 2-division polynomial (therefore, it has degree 1, 2, 3 or 6):

sage: # needs sage.rings.number_field
sage: E = EllipticCurve('15a1')
sage: K.<b> = E.division_field(2); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x
sage: E = EllipticCurve('14a1')
sage: K.<b> = E.division_field(2); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^2 + 5*x + 92
sage: E = EllipticCurve('196b1')
sage: K.<b> = E.division_field(2); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^3 + x^2 - 114*x - 127
sage: E = EllipticCurve('19a1')
sage: K.<b> = E.division_field(2); K

 x^6 + 10*x^5 + 24*x^4 - 212*x^3 + 1364*x^2 + 24072*x + 104292
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.rings.number_field
>>> E = EllipticCurve('15a1')
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(2), names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x
>>> E = EllipticCurve('14a1')
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(2), names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^2 + 5*x + 92
>>> E = EllipticCurve('196b1')
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(2), names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^3 + x^2 - 114*x - 127
>>> E = EllipticCurve('19a1')
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(2), names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K

 x^6 + 10*x^5 + 24*x^4 - 212*x^3 + 1364*x^2 + 24072*x + 104292

For odd primes \(n\), the division field is either the splitting field of the \(n\)-division polynomial, or a quadratic extension of it.

sage: # needs sage.rings.number_field
sage: E = EllipticCurve('50a1')
sage: F.<a> = E.division_polynomial(3).splitting_field(simplify_all=True); F
Number Field in a
 with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 4*x^4 - 3*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 3*x + 3
sage: K.<b> = E.division_field(3, simplify_all=True); K
Number Field in b
 with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 4*x^4 - 3*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 3*x + 3
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.rings.number_field
>>> E = EllipticCurve('50a1')
>>> F = E.division_polynomial(Integer(3)).splitting_field(simplify_all=True, names=('a',)); (a,) = F._first_ngens(1); F
Number Field in a
 with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 4*x^4 - 3*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 3*x + 3
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(3), simplify_all=True, names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K
Number Field in b
 with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 4*x^4 - 3*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 3*x + 3

If we take any quadratic twist, the splitting field of the 3-division polynomial remains the same, but the 3-division field becomes a quadratic extension:

sage: # needs sage.rings.number_field
sage: E = E.quadratic_twist(5)  # 50b3
sage: F.<a> = E.division_polynomial(3).splitting_field(simplify_all=True); F
Number Field in a

Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^12 - 3*x^11 + 8*x^10 - 15*x^9
 + 30*x^8 - 63*x^7 + 109*x^6 - 144*x^5 + 150*x^4 - 120*x^3 + 68*x^2 - 24*x + 4
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.rings.number_field
>>> E = E.quadratic_twist(Integer(5))  # 50b3
>>> F = E.division_polynomial(Integer(3)).splitting_field(simplify_all=True, names=('a',)); (a,) = F._first_ngens(1); F
Number Field in a
 with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 4*x^4 - 3*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 3*x + 3
>>> K = E.division_field(Integer(3), simplify_all=True, names=('b',)); (b,) = K._first_ngens(1); K
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^12 - 3*x^11 + 8*x^10 - 15*x^9
 + 30*x^8 - 63*x^7 + 109*x^6 - 144*x^5 + 150*x^4 - 120*x^3 + 68*x^2 - 24*x + 4

endomorphism_ring_is_commutative()[source]#

Check whether the endomorphism ring of this elliptic curve over its base field is commutative.

ALGORITHM: The endomorphism ring is always commutative in characteristic zero. Over finite fields, it is commutative if and only if the Frobenius endomorphism is not in \(\ZZ\). All elliptic curves with non-commutative endomorphism ring are supersingular. (The converse holds over the algebraic closure, but here we consider endomorphisms over the field of definition.)

hasse_invariant()[source]#

Return the Hasse invariant of this elliptic curve.

OUTPUT:

The Hasse invariant of this elliptic curve, as an element of the base field. This is only defined over fields of positive characteristic, and is an element of the field which is zero if and only if the curve is supersingular. Over a field of characteristic zero, where the Hasse invariant is undefined, a ValueError is raised.

is_isogenous(other, field=None)[source]#

Return whether or not self is isogenous to other.

INPUT:

  • other – another elliptic curve.

  • field (default None) – Currently not implemented. A field containing the base fields of the two elliptic curves onto which the two curves may be extended to test if they are isogenous over this field. By default is_isogenous will not try to find this field unless one of the curves can be be extended into the base field of the other, in which case it will test over the larger base field.

OUTPUT:

(bool) True if there is an isogeny from curve self to curve other defined over field.

Over general fields this is only implemented in trivial cases.

is_quadratic_twist(other)[source]#

isogeny(kernel, codomain=None, degree=None, model=None, check=True, algorithm=None, velu_sqrt_bound=None)[source]#

Return an elliptic-curve isogeny from this elliptic curve.

The isogeny can be specified in two ways, by passing either a polynomial or a set of torsion points. The methods used are:

  • Factored Isogenies (see hom_composite): Given a point, or a list of points which generate a composite-order subgroup, decomposes the isogeny into prime-degree steps. This can be used to construct isogenies of extremely large, smooth degree. When applicable, this algorithm is selected as default (see below). After factoring the degree single isogenies are computed using the other methods. This algorithm is selected using algorithm="factored".

  • Vélu’s Formulas: Vélu’s original formulas for computing isogenies. This algorithm is selected by giving as the kernel parameter a single point generating a finite subgroup.

  • Kohel’s Formulas: Kohel’s original formulas for computing isogenies. This algorithm is selected by giving as the kernel parameter a monic polynomial (or a coefficient list in little endian) which will define the kernel of the isogeny. Kohel’s algorithm is currently only implemented for cyclic isogenies, with the exception of \([2]\).

  • √élu Algorithm (see hom_velusqrt): A variant of Vélu’s formulas with essentially square-root instead of linear complexity (in the degree). Currently only available over finite fields. The input must be a single kernel point of odd order \(\geq 5\). This algorithm is selected using algorithm="velusqrt".

INPUT:

  • kernel – a kernel: either a point on this curve, a list of points on this curve, a monic kernel polynomial, or None. If initializing from a codomain, this must be None.

  • codomain – an elliptic curve (default: None).

    • If kernel is None, then degree must be given as well and the given codomain must be the codomain of a cyclic, separable, normalized isogeny of the given degree.

    • If kernel is not None, then this must be isomorphic to the codomain of the separable isogeny defined by kernel; in this case, the isogeny is post-composed with an isomorphism so that the codomain equals the given curve.

  • degree – an integer (default: None).

    • If kernel is None, then this is the degree of the isogeny from this curve to codomain.

    • If kernel is not None, then this is used to determine whether or not to skip a \(\gcd\) of the given kernel polynomial with the two-torsion polynomial of this curve.

  • model – a string (default: None). Supported values (cf. compute_model()):

    • "minimal": If self is a curve over the rationals or over a number field, then the codomain is a global minimal model where this exists.

    • "short_weierstrass": The codomain is a short Weierstrass curve, assuming one exists.

    • "montgomery": The codomain is an (untwisted) Montgomery curve, assuming one exists over this field.

  • check (default: True) – check whether the input is valid. Setting this to False can lead to significant speedups.

  • algorithm – string (optional). The possible choices are:

    When algorithm is not specified, and kernel is not None, an algorithm is selected using the following criteria:

    • if kernel is a list of multiple points, "factored" is selected.

    • If kernel is a single point, or a list containing a single point:

      • if the order of the point is unknown, "traditional" is selected.

      • If the order is known and composite, "factored" is selected.

      • If the order is known and prime, a choice between "velusqrt" and "traditional" is done according to the velu_sqrt_bound parameter (see below).

    If none of the previous apply, "traditional" is selected.

  • velu_sqrt_bound – an integer (default: None). Establish the highest (prime) degree for which the "traditional" algorithm should be selected instead of "velusqrt". If None, the default value from _VeluBoundObj is used. This value is initially set to 1000, but can be modified by the user. If an integer is supplied and the isogeny computation goes through the "factored" algorithm, the same integer is supplied to each factor.

The degree parameter is not supported when an algorithm is specified.

OUTPUT:

An isogeny between elliptic curves. This is a morphism of curves. (In all cases, the returned object will be an instance of EllipticCurveHom.)

isogeny_codomain(kernel)[source]#

Return the codomain of the isogeny from self with given kernel.

INPUT:

  • kernel – Either a list of points in the kernel of the isogeny, or a kernel polynomial (specified as either a univariate polynomial or a coefficient list.)

OUTPUT:

An elliptic curve, the codomain of the separable normalized isogeny defined by this kernel.

isogeny_ell_graph(l, directed=True, label_by_j=False)[source]#

Return a graph representing the l-degree K-isogenies between K-isomorphism classes of elliptic curves for K = self.base_field().

INPUT:

  • l – prime degree of isogenies

  • directed – boolean (default: True); whether to return a directed or undirected graph. In the undirected case, the in-degrees and out-degrees of the vertices must be balanced and therefore the number of out-edges from the vertices corresponding to j-invariants 0 and 1728 (if they are part of the graph) are reduced to match the number of in-edges.

  • label_by_j – boolean (default: False); whether to label graph vertices by the j-invariant corresponding to the isomorphism class of curves. If the j-invariant is not unique in the isogeny class, append * to it to indicate a twist. Otherwise, if False label vertices by the equation of a representative curve.

OUTPUT: A Graph or DiGraph.

Given an irreducible divisor \(f\) of the \(l\)-division polynomial on this curve, return the kernel polynomial defining the subgroup defined by \(f\).

If the given polynomial does not define a rational subgroup, a ValueError is raised.

ALGORITHM:

  • The "basic" algorithm is to multiply together all the linear factors \((X - x([i]P))\) of the kernel polynomial using a product tree, then converting the result to the base field of the curve. Its complexity is \(\widetilde O(\ell k)\) where \(k\) is the extension degree.

  • The "minpoly" algorithm is [EPSV2023], Algorithm 4 (KernelPolynomialFromIrrationalX). Over finite fields, its complexity is \(O(\ell k) + \widetilde O(\ell)\) where \(k\) is the extension degree.

quadratic_twist(D=None)[source]#

Return the quadratic twist of this curve by D.

INPUT:

  • D (default None) the twisting parameter (see below).

In characteristics other than 2, \(D\) must be nonzero, and the twist is isomorphic to self after adjoining \(\sqrt(D)\) to the base.

In characteristic 2, \(D\) is arbitrary, and the twist is isomorphic to self after adjoining a root of \(x^2+x+D\) to the base.

In characteristic 2 when \(j=0\), this is not implemented.

If the base field \(F\) is finite, \(D\) need not be specified, and the curve returned is the unique curve (up to isomorphism) defined over \(F\) isomorphic to the original curve over the quadratic extension of \(F\) but not over \(F\) itself. Over infinite fields, an error is raised if \(D\) is not given.
