What is the possible $p$-torsion subgroup of $E(\mathbb{Q}_p)$ for an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and if there is a theorem to say which case happens when?

Let $K$ be a local field with residue field $k$ and $E/K$ an elliptic curve. I'm interested for which $K$ and $E$ the group of torsion points on the curve is finite. I can prove that this group is ...

I am trying to understand an argument of Corollary 7.3 from Silverman's The Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves. I am stuck and I would appreciate any explanations. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $K$, ...

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with potential good reduction. I was told that if $F$ is the smallest Galois extension over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ such that $E$ has good reduction then the ...

Neron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion states that an elliptic curve $E$ over a local field $K$ has a good reduction if and only if the Tate module $T_{\ell}(E)$ is unramified for some prime $\ell$ which ...

Could someone please point me towards a proof of the statement in the second paragraph, in the proof of Theorem 7b of Serre's Propriétés galoisiennes...? The statement is as follows: Let $F$ and $F'$ ...
