Lang–Trotter conjecture for simultaneous supersingular reduction
Lang–Trotter conjecture for simultaneous supersingular reduction
Let be a pair of elliptic curves defined over . Assume that neither curve has complex multiplication and that they are not isogenous over . Define
Lang–Trotter conjecture for pairs. There exists a non-negative constant such that
as .
Lang and Trotter proposed this asymptotic as part of a probabilistic model for Frobenius traces, based on Sato–Tate heuristics. The source recalls it as an input for subsequent height bounds and gives no resolution status.
