Local data at primes of bad reduction

This elliptic curve is not semistable. There are 2 primes $p$ of bad reduction:

$p$	Tamagawa number	Kodaira symbol	Reduction type	Root number	$\mathrm{ord}_p(N)$	$\mathrm{ord}_p(\Delta)$	$\mathrm{ord}_p(\mathrm{den}(j))$
$2$	$4$	$I_{1}^{*}$	additive	1	3	8	0
$3$	$3$	$IV$	additive	1	3	5	0

Galois representations

The $\ell$-adic Galois representation has maximal image for all primes $\ell$ except those listed in the table below.

prime $\ell$	mod-$\ell$ image	$\ell$-adic image
$2$	2G	4.4.0.1

The image $H:=\rho_E(\Gal(\overline{\Q}/\Q))$ of the adelic Galois representation has label 12.8.0.c.1, level $12 = 2^{2} \cdot 3$, index $8$, genus $0$, and generators

$\left(\begin{array}{rr} 9 & 4 \\ 8 & 5 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 4 & 9 \\ 5 & 1 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 2 & 1 \\ 5 & 3 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 8 & 3 \\ 1 & 4 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 1 & 4 \\ 0 & 1 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 1 & 0 \\ 4 & 1 \end{array}\right)$.

The torsion field $K:=\Q(E[12])$ is a degree-$576$ Galois extension of $\Q$ with $\Gal(K/\Q)$ isomorphic to the projection of $H$ to $\GL_2(\Z/12\Z)$.

The table below list all primes $\ell$ for which the Serre invariants associated to the mod-$\ell$ Galois representation are exceptional.

$\ell$	Reduction type	Serre weight	Serre conductor
$2$	additive	$2$	$27 = 3^{3}$
$3$	additive	$8$	$4 = 2^{2}$

Isogenies

This curve has no rational isogenies. Its isogeny class 216.a consists of this curve only.

Twists

This elliptic curve is its own minimal quadratic twist.

Growth of torsion in number fields

The number fields $K$ of degree less than 24 such that $E(K)_{\rm tors}$ is strictly larger than $E(\Q)_{\rm tors}$ (which is trivial) are as follows:

$[K:\Q]$	$K$	$E(K)_{\rm tors}$	Base change curve
$3$	3.1.108.1	$\Z/2\Z$	not in database
$6$	6.0.34992.1	$\Z/2\Z \oplus \Z/2\Z$	not in database
$8$	8.2.181398528.2	$\Z/3\Z$	not in database
$12$	12.2.15045919506432.1	$\Z/4\Z$	not in database

We only show fields where the torsion growth is primitive.

An entry - indicates that the invariants are not computed because the reduction is additive.

$p$-adic regulators

Note: $p$-adic regulator data only exists for primes $p\ge 5$ of good ordinary reduction.
