Torsion points on modular curves and Galois theory
Kenneth A. Ribet, Minhyong Kim
We outline the proof of a theorem of M. Baker and A. Tamagawa that gives a complete description of the torsion points on a modular curve embedded in its Jacobian using the notion o…

Galois theory and torsion points on curves
Matthew Baker, Kenneth A. Ribet
In this paper, we survey some Galois-theoretic techniques for studying torsion points on curves. In particular, we give new proofs of some results of A. Tamagawa and the present au…

Letter about component groups of elliptic curves
Kenneth A. Ribet
This is the text of a letter written by K. Ribet to J.-F. Mestre in November, 1987. The letter proves three formulas that had been conjectured by Mestre and Oesterlé. These formula…
