Degree and linear-factor conjecture for class 3C supersingular polynomials

About 8 years old · traced to

Let p≥5p\geq5 be prime. Let ssp(3C)(X)ss_{p}^{(3C)}(X) be the supersingular polynomial associated with the group Γ0(3∣3)\Gamma_{0}(3|3), and let L(3C)(p)L^{(3C)}(p) be its number of linear factors. Let L(p)L(p) denote the number of linear factors of the level-1 supersingular polynomial.

Class 3C supersingular-polynomial conjecture.

deg⁡ssp(3C)(X)=p−14+32ε,L(3C)(p)=(2+(−3p))L(p).\deg ss_{p}^{(3C)}(X)=\frac{p-1}{4}+\frac32\varepsilon,\qquad L^{(3C)}(p)=\left(2+\left(\frac{-3}{p}\right)\right)L(p).

This conjecture predicts both the degree and the number of linear factors for the class-3C supersingular polynomial. The source gives no resolution evidence, and the supplied context does not define ε\varepsilon.
