The exponents of the groups of points on the reductions of an elliptic curve

  • Chapter
Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 89))

Abstract

Let E denote an elliptic curve over Q without complex multiplication. It is shown that the exponents of the groups E(F p ) grow at least as fast as \( \frac{{\sqrt {P} \log \;p}}{{{{(\log \;\log \;p)}^2}}} \).
