Degrees are multiplicative, so the degree of a composite isogeny is the product of the degrees of the individual factors:

sage: from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom_composite import EllipticCurveHom_composite
sage: E = EllipticCurve(GF(419), [1,0])
sage: P, = E.gens()
sage: phi = EllipticCurveHom_composite(E, P+P)
sage: phi.degree()
210
sage: phi.degree() == prod(f.degree() for f in phi.factors())
True
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom_composite import EllipticCurveHom_composite
>>> E = EllipticCurve(GF(Integer(419)), [Integer(1),Integer(0)])
>>> P, = E.gens()
>>> phi = EllipticCurveHom_composite(E, P+P)
>>> phi.degree()
210
>>> phi.degree() == prod(f.degree() for f in phi.factors())
True

Isomorphisms always have degree \(1\) by definition:

sage: E1 = EllipticCurve([1,2,3,4,5])
sage: E2 = EllipticCurve_from_j(E1.j_invariant())
sage: E1.isomorphism_to(E2).degree()
1
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> E1 = EllipticCurve([Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(3),Integer(4),Integer(5)])
>>> E2 = EllipticCurve_from_j(E1.j_invariant())
>>> E1.isomorphism_to(E2).degree()
1

Determine whether this morphism is a normalized isogeny.

An isogeny \(\varphi\colon E_1\to E_2\) between two given Weierstrass equations is said to be normalized if the \(\varphi^*(\omega_2) = \omega_1\), where \(\omega_1\) and \(\omega_2\) are the invariant differentials on \(E_1\) and \(E_2\) corresponding to the given equation.

One important application of this is to compute generators of the kernel subgroup of an isogeny, when the \(n\)-torsion subgroup containing the kernel is accessible:

sage: K = E(83*i-16, 9*i-147)
sage: K.order()
7
sage: phi = E.isogeny(K)
sage: R,S = phi.codomain().gens()
sage: mat = phi.matrix_on_subgroup((P,Q), (R,S))
sage: mat  # random -- depends on R,S
[124 263]
[115 141]
sage: kermat = mat.left_kernel_matrix(); kermat
[300  60]
sage: ker = [ZZ(v[0])*P + ZZ(v[1])*Q for v in kermat]
sage: {phi(T) for T in ker}
{(0 : 1 : 0)}
sage: phi == E.isogeny(ker)
True
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> K = E(Integer(83)*i-Integer(16), Integer(9)*i-Integer(147))
>>> K.order()
7
>>> phi = E.isogeny(K)
>>> R,S = phi.codomain().gens()
>>> mat = phi.matrix_on_subgroup((P,Q), (R,S))
>>> mat  # random -- depends on R,S
[124 263]
[115 141]
>>> kermat = mat.left_kernel_matrix(); kermat
[300  60]
>>> ker = [ZZ(v[Integer(0)])*P + ZZ(v[Integer(1)])*Q for v in kermat]
>>> {phi(T) for T in ker}
{(0 : 1 : 0)}
>>> phi == E.isogeny(ker)
True

We can also compute the matrix of a Frobenius endomorphism (EllipticCurveHom_frobenius) on a large enough subgroup to verify point-counting results:

sage: F.<a> = GF((101, 36))
sage: E = EllipticCurve(GF(101), [1,1])
sage: EE = E.change_ring(F)
sage: P,Q = EE.torsion_basis(37)
sage: pi = EE.frobenius_isogeny()
sage: M = pi.matrix_on_subgroup((P,Q))
sage: M.parent()
Full MatrixSpace of 2 by 2 dense matrices over Ring of integers modulo 37

>>> E = EllipticCurve(GF(Integer(101)), [Integer(1),Integer(1)])
>>> EE = E.change_ring(F)
>>> P,Q = EE.torsion_basis(Integer(37))
>>> pi = EE.frobenius_isogeny()

Implemented by child classes. For examples, see:

sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom.compare_via_evaluation(left, right)[source]

Test if two elliptic-curve morphisms are equal by evaluating them at enough points.

INPUT:

ALGORITHM:

We use the fact that two isogenies of equal degree \(d\) must be the same if and only if they behave identically on more than \(4d\) points. (It suffices to check this on a few points that generate a large enough subgroup.)

If the domain curve does not have sufficiently many rational points, the base field is extended first: Taking an extension of degree \(O(\log(d))\) suffices.

EXAMPLES:

sage: E = EllipticCurve(GF(83), [1,0])
sage: phi = E.isogeny(12*E.0, model='montgomery'); phi

sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom.compute_trace_generic(phi)[source]

Compute the trace of the given elliptic-curve endomorphism.

ALGORITHM: Simple variant of Schoof’s algorithm. For enough small primes \(\ell\), we find an order-\(\ell\) point \(P\) on \(E\) and use a discrete-logarithm calculation to find the unique scalar \(t_\ell \in \{0,...,\ell-1\}\) such that \(\varphi^2(P)+[\deg(\varphi)]P = [t_\ell]\varphi(P)\). Then \(t_\ell\) equals the trace of \(\varphi\) modulo \(\ell\), which can therefore be recovered using the Chinese remainder theorem.

EXAMPLES:

It works over finite fields:

sage: from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom import compute_trace_generic
sage: E = EllipticCurve(GF(31337), [1,1])
sage: compute_trace_generic(E.frobenius_endomorphism())

>>> E = EllipticCurve(GF(Integer(31337)), [Integer(1),Integer(1)])
>>> compute_trace_generic(E.frobenius_endomorphism())
314

It works over \(\QQ\):

sage: from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom import compute_trace_generic
sage: E = EllipticCurve(QQ, [1,2,3,4,5])
sage: dbl = E.scalar_multiplication(2)

>>> E = EllipticCurve(QQ, [Integer(1),Integer(2),Integer(3),Integer(4),Integer(5)])

>>> compute_trace_generic(dbl)

sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.hom.find_post_isomorphism(phi, psi)[source]

Given two isogenies \(\phi: E\to E'\) and \(\psi: E\to E''\) which are equal up to post-isomorphism defined over the same field, find that isomorphism.

In other words, this function computes an isomorphism \(\alpha: E'\to E''\) such that \(\alpha\circ\phi = \psi\).

ALGORITHM:

Start with a list of all isomorphisms \(E'\to E''\). Then repeatedly evaluate \(\phi\) and \(\psi\) at random points \(P\) to filter the list for isomorphisms \(\alpha\) with \(\alpha(\phi(P)) = \psi(P)\). Once only one candidate is left, return it. Periodically extend the base field to avoid getting stuck (say, if all candidate isomorphisms act the same on all rational points).
