The type of supersingular j-invariants over the algebraic closure of 𝔽_p.
These are the j-invariants of supersingular elliptic curves in characteristic p,
all of which lie in 𝔽_{p^2} (Theorem 13.16).
Instances For
The set of supersingular j-invariants in characteristic p is finite.
Equality of supersingular j-invariants is decidable.
The set of supersingular j-invariants is nonempty for every prime p.
Embed a supersingular j-invariant into ZMod (p^2) ≃ 𝔽_{p^2}. This realizes
the inclusion of supersingular j-invariants into 𝔽_{p^2} provided by Theorem 13.16.
Instances For
The embedding of supersingular j-invariants into ZMod (p^2) is injective.
Edges in the ℓ-isogeny graph (defined via the modular polynomial Φ_ℓ) are symmetric:
if j₁ is connected to j₂ then so is j₂ to j₁. This reflects the symmetry of Φ_ℓ(X, Y).
Adjacency in the supersingular ℓ-isogeny graph is decidable.
Instances For
The supersingular ℓ-isogeny graph in characteristic p (with p ≠ ℓ):
a simple graph whose vertices are supersingular j-invariants in 𝔽_{p^2} and
whose edges record the existence of an ℓ-isogeny between the corresponding curves
(as detected by the modular polynomial Φ_ℓ).
Instances For
The supersingular ℓ-isogeny graph is (ℓ+1)-regular (as a multigraph): the sum
of edge multiplicities from any vertex j to all other vertices equals ℓ + 1.
The supersingular ℓ-isogeny graph is connected: any two supersingular j-invariants
can be linked by a chain of ℓ-isogenies.
μ is a nontrivial eigenvalue of the adjacency operator of a k-regular graph G
(i.e., an eigenvalue other than the trivial eigenvalue k).
Instances For
Pizer/Mestre: the supersingular ℓ-isogeny graph is a Ramanujan graph. Every
nontrivial eigenvalue μ of its (ℓ+1)-regular adjacency operator satisfies
|μ| ≤ 2√ℓ, the Ramanujan bound.
