The norm relations test over arbitrary number fields
The norm relations test over arbitrary number fields
Let be an elliptic curve, let be a Galois extension with Galois group , and let be an irreducible representation of . Suppose that
for some and subgroups . Norm relations test. If either
is not a norm from some quadratic field , or is not a rational square when is even, then has a point of infinite order over . This is the extension of the norm relations test from elliptic curves over to arbitrary number fields. The paper states that it follows from the parity conjecture for twists under the relevant semistable-reduction hypotheses; no unconditional resolution is given.
