Bad primes of twists of modular curves $X_E^{-1}(p)$
I am interested in a good reference for reading about primes of bad reduction for the modular curve $X_E^{-}(N)$, which is a twist of $X(N)$ parametrizing all elliptic curves $E'$ whose $N$-torsion ...

Isogeny of elliptic curve over positive characteristic $p$ which does not come from characteristic $0$
Let $K$ be quadratic imaginary field. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve which has CM over $R_K$
($R_K$ is ring of integers of $K$).
According to SIlverman's ''ADvanced topics in the arithmetic of elliptic ...

modularity of elliptic curves over function fields in positive characteristic
Let $F$ be a global function field over a finite field, and $E$ be an elliptic curve over $F$. Much like the number field case, it is natural to study the Galois representation on the Tate module of $...

Supersingular elliptic curves and their automorphisms
If $E$ is a supersingular elliptic curve over a finite field of characteristic $p$, what is known about its automorphism group (i.e the stabilizer of a point in algebraic curves terminology).
Do all ...

Existence of certain endomorphism of supersingular elliptic curve
Let $E$ be a supersingular elliptic curve over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p$. Let $R = \operatorname{End}(E)$ be its ring of endomorphisms. Then, it is known $R \otimes_{\...

On families of supersingular abelian surfaces over the projective line
Let $k=\mathbb{F}_q$. I recently learned that there are non-isotrivial families $f:X\to \mathbb{P}^1_k$ of supersingular abelian surfaces. In particular, the Kodaira-Spencer map of this family is non-...

Is there a nice proof of the fact that there are (p-1)/24 supersingular elliptic curves in characteristic p?
If $k$ is a characteristic $p$ field containing a subfield with $p^2$ elements (e.g., an algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_p$), then the number of isomorphism classes of supersingular elliptic curves ...

Interpreting Frobenius pullback as an invariant differential in the case of an elliptic curve
Let $S$ be an affine scheme of characteristic $p > 0$, let $E \rightarrow S$ be an elliptic curve over $S$, and let $F$ denote the absolute Frobenius. Since $E$ is its own $\mathrm{Pic}^0$ there is ...

What does "supersingular" mean?
Are supersingular primes and supersingular elliptic curves related?
(this was essentially a subquestion in my earlier question, but still looks sufficiently different to me to deserve a separate post)...

Ways to characterize supersingular primes?
I've read the definition, and it basically says p is a supersingular prime iff
the fundamental domain of a group generated by \Gamma(p) and a matrix ((0, 1), (-p, 0)) is rational.
And there's a ...
