A method to prove that a modular Galois representation has large image
Nicolas Mascot
Let be a mod Galois representation attached to a newform . Explicit methods are sometimes able to determine the image of , or even the number field cut out by ,…
Computing the trace of an algebraic point on an elliptic curve
Nicolas Mascot, Denis Simon
We present a simple and efficient algorithm to compute the sum of the algebraic conjugates of a point on an elliptic curve.
A Prym variety with everywhere good reduction over
Nicolas Mascot, Jeroen Sijsling, John Voight
We compute an equation for a modular abelian surface that has everywhere good reduction over the quadratic field and that does not admit a principal…
Explicit computation of a Galois representation attached to an eigenform over SL3 from the H2 étale of a surface
Nicolas Mascot
We sketch a method to compute mod Galois representations contained in the H2 étale of surfaces. We apply this method to the case of a representation with values in GL(3,9) a…
Hensel-lifting torsion points on Jacobians and Galois representations
Nicolas Mascot
Let be a mod Galois representation. We show how to compute , given the characteristic polynomial of the image of the Frobenius at one prime and a curve whose…
