Abstract

In previous works, we proved that under a certain assumption, the set of rational points over a number field on the Shimura curve of \(\varGamma _0(p)\)-type consists of at most elliptic points for every sufficiently large prime number p. In this article, we relax the assumption of the previous result and prove the non-existence of elliptic points under a mild extra assumption.
