Do there exist elliptic curves over $H_K$ having everywhere good reduction and CM by $\mathcal{O}_K$?
For $K$ a number field, denote by $\mathcal{O}_K$ its ring of integers and by $H_K$ its Hilbert class field.
For which imaginary quadratic field $K$ does there exist an elliptic curve $E$, defined ...

What's the Hilbert class field of an elliptic curve?
My question points in a direction similar to Qiaochu's, but it's not the same (or so I think). Let me provide you with a little bit of background first.
Let E be an elliptic curve defined over some ...
