Oct 29 at 11:41 comment added did @ChrisWuthrich thank you! The last comment clarifies my confusion.
Oct 22 at 11:46 comment added Chris Wuthrich If $\phi: E \to E'$ is an isogeny defined over $F$ between two curves defined over $K$, then $\phi$ is the composition of an isogeny of that degree defined over $K$ and an isomorphism from $E/E[\phi]$ to $E'$ defined over $F$.
Oct 22 at 11:46 comment added Chris Wuthrich The algorithms look for all isogenies $\phi$ leaving $E$ defined over a fixed number field $K$, which is equivalent to finding their kernels $C = E[\phi]$ as subgroup of $E$ defined over $K$. The codomain $E/C$ is defined over $K$.
Oct 20 at 18:27 comment added did Thank you. I have a follow-up naive question. In this algorithm, they show how to find primes $l$ such that $E/K$ has an $l$-isogeny. It seems to me that in this context the $l$-isogenies are thought to be defined over $K$, is that right?

Oct 20 at 15:32 comment added Chris Wuthrich (3) No, because of quadratic twists this isn't true even for isomorphic curves (degree 1 isogenies).
Oct 20 at 15:31 comment added Chris Wuthrich My answer to this question contains links to algorithms even over number fields. That should help for (1).
