Weak Frey–Mazur conjecture for elliptic curves over number fields

Let KK be a number field and let E0E_0 be a fixed elliptic curve over KK. Let pp be a prime, and let E/KE/K be an elliptic curve. Write ρˉE,p\bar{\rho}_{E,p} and ρˉE0,p\bar{\rho}_{E_0,p} for the residual mod-pp Galois representations of EE and E0E_0.

Weak Frey–Mazur conjecture. There is a constant NE0N_{E_0}, depending only on E0E_0, such that if p>NE0p>N_{E_0} and

ρˉE,pρˉE0,p,\bar{\rho}_{E,p}\sim \bar{\rho}_{E_0,p},

then EE is isogenous to E0E_0.

This is a weak form of the Frey–Mazur conjecture over number fields: sufficiently large-prime congruence of residual representations should force isogeny. The source attributes it to Frey and Mazur and uses it as an input; no resolution is stated here.
