A. Find the elliptic curve that modular mod-p representations come from, for p < 7

People: William Stein, Mike Lipnowski, Sam Lichtenstein, Ben Linowitz, Laura Peskin, David Ai, Rodney Keaton, M. Tip, Brandon Levin

(24.06.2010 update)

Attached are some text files giving some data about the minimal conductor < 10,000 for an elliptic curve realizing a mod 2, 3, or 5 representation attached to a newform of level < 150. -Sam

B. S_4-extensions: find the curves

People: Brandon Levin, Mike Lipnowski, Gagan Sekhon, Noam Elkies, Jon Cass, David Ai

C. Mod-7 galreps from abvars of prime level not arising from elliptic curves

People: Laura Peskin, M. Tip, Arijit, Rebecca, Mike D, Noam

(24.06.2010 update)

Level 29 gives an example. Using the Hasse bound we see that a2 is -2,-1,0,1,2, so a2 mod 7 is 0,1,2,5,6. Thus one of the level 29 forms doesn't come from an elliptic curve.

D. Prime powers for small primes

People: Ben Linowitz, Sam Lichtenstein, Gagan, Chris Wuthrich, Barinder, Hatice

(24.06.2010 update)

Gagan reports that the Galois representations associated to 121A and 121C are surjective mod 2 but not mod 4.

Status report, Monday 30.06.2010

See http://wiki.sagemath.org/GaganSekhon

There is only one conjugacy class of subgroups of GL(2,Z/9) which surjects onto (Z/9Z)* under the determinant map and reduces onto GL(2,Z/3). It is of size 144=3*#GL(2,Z/3). So Elkies' analysis of "3 not 9" pins down the image of Galois completely.
