Conjecture on simultaneous supersingular reduction for elliptic-curve pairs
Conjecture on simultaneous supersingular reduction for elliptic-curve pairs
Let and be two elliptic curves defined over a number field . Assume that and are non-CM and non-isogenous over . Let
where is the set of finite places at which both curves have supersingular reduction. Simultaneous supersingular reduction conjecture. There exists a constant such that
as .
This is a number-field analogue of the Lang–Trotter heuristic for pairs and would provide the sparsity estimate needed in the paper's height-bound argument. The source presents it as a natural conjecture and gives no resolution evidence.
