Tate's conjectural analytic continuation and functional equation for Artin-twisted elliptic-curve L-functions

Let EE) be an elliptic curve and let ρ\rho be an Artin representation, both defined over Q\mathbb{Q}. Define the twisted LL-function by

L(E,ρ,s)=q primePq(E,ρ,qs)1,L(E,\rho,s)=\prod_{q\ \mathrm{prime}}P_q(E,\rho,q^{-s})^{-1},

where

Pq(E,ρ,T)=det(1Frobq1THl1(E)QlVρ,l),P_q(E,\rho,T)=\det\left(1-\mathrm{Frob}_q^{-1}\cdot T\mid H_l^1(E)\otimes_{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_l}V_{\rho,l}\right),

Hl1(E)H_l^1(E) is the dual of the ll-adic Tate module of EE, and Vρ,lV_{\rho,l} is obtained from ρ\rho by extending scalars to Ql\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_l. Set

L(s)=(2(2π)sΓ(s))dimρ,L^(E,ρ,s)=L(s)L(E,ρ,s),L_\infty(s)=\left(2(2\pi)^{-s}\Gamma(s)\right)^{\dim\rho},\qquad \widehat{L}(E,\rho,s)=L_\infty(s)L(E,\rho,s),

and let N(E,ρ)N(E,\rho) denote the conductor of the twist of EE by ρ\rho. Tate's conjecture. The completed LL-function L^(E,ρ,s)\widehat{L}(E,\rho,s) has an analytic continuation to the whole complex plane and satisfies

L^(E,ρ,s)=w(E,ρ)N(E,ρ)1sL^(E,ρ,2s),\widehat{L}(E,\rho,s)=w(E,\rho)N(E,\rho)^{1-s}\widehat{L}(E,\rho^*,2-s),

where ρ\rho^* is the contragredient representation of ρ\rho, and the root number w(E,ρ)w(E,\rho) is a complex number of absolute value 11.
