I just taught my last class of this term---teaching undergraduates how to compute ranks of elliptic curves by hand via explicit 2-isogenies. One reason I teach it is that I feel it's becoming a dying art. But when faced with the conductor problem I had above, my instincts were to turn straight to a computer. Perhaps I shouldn't have been so hasty! | |
