Parity conjecture for βN\beta_{-N} when aE(2)a_E(2) is even

Let EE be an elliptic curve with conductor NEN_E, and let aE(2)a_E(2) denote its eigenvalue at 22. For a prime N3(mod4)N\equiv 3\pmod{4}, let βN\beta_{-N} be the associated integer. Parity conjecture. If NE3(mod4)N_E\equiv 3\pmod{4} and aE(2)a_E(2) is even, then βN\beta_{-N} is even.

The numerical data in the table suggest this parity relation for the coefficients attached to elliptic curves of conductor congruent to 33 modulo 44; its general validity is left open.
