Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q. Let E(Fp) denote the elliptic curve modulo p. It is known that there exist integers i p and f p such that E(Fp) ∼= Z/i pZ × Z/i p fp Z. We study questions related to i p and f p. In particular, for any α > 0 and k ∈ N, we prove there exist positive constants cα and ck such that for any A > 0

Σ(log ip)α = c&#945 li(x) + O(x/(logx)A)

and

Σ Tk(ip) = ck li(x) + O(x/(log x)A)

unconditionally for CMelliptic curves, where τk (n) is the number of ways of writing n as a product of k positive integers. For a CM curve E and 0 < α < 1, we prove that there exists a constant c'α > 0 such that Σ iαp = c'α li(x) + O(x3+α/4 (log x)1-α/2)

Abstract


Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q. Let E(Fp) denote the elliptic curve modulo p. It is known that there exist integers i p and f p such that E(Fp) ∼= Z/i pZ × Z/i p fp Z. We study questions related to i p and f p. In particular, for any α > 0 and k ∈ N, we prove there exist positive constants cα and ck such that for any A > 0

Σ(log ip)α = c&#945 li(x) + O(x/(logx)A)

and

Σ Tk(ip) = ck li(x) + O(x/(log x)A)

unconditionally for CMelliptic curves, where τk (n) is the number of ways of writing n as a product of k positive integers. For a CM curve E and 0 < α < 1, we prove that there exists a constant c'α > 0 such that Σ iαp = c'α li(x) + O(x3+α/4 (log x)1-α/2)
