Galois representations
The image of the 2-adic representation attached to this elliptic curve is the subgroup of $\GL(2,\Z_2)$ with Rouse label X15.
This subgroup is the pull-back of the subgroup of $\GL(2,\Z_2/2^3\Z_2)$ generated by $\left(\begin{array}{rr} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 7 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 \end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr} 5 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 \end{array}\right)$ and has index 6.
The mod \( p \) Galois representation has maximal image \(\GL(2,\F_p)\) for all primes \( p \) except those listed.

Isogenies

Its isogeny class 102a
consists of 2 curves linked by isogenies of
degree 2.
Growth of torsion in number fields
The number fields $K$ of degree up to 7 such that $E(K)_{\rm tors}$ is strictly larger than $E(\Q)_{\rm tors}$ $\cong \Z/{2}\Z$ are as follows:
| $[K:\Q]$ | $K$ | $E(K)_{\rm tors}$ | Base change curve |
|---|---|---|---|
| $2$ | \(\Q(\sqrt{17}) \) | \(\Z/2\Z \times \Z/2\Z\) | 2.2.17.1-612.1-a2 |
| $4$ | 4.0.1088.1 | \(\Z/4\Z\) | Not in database |
We only show fields where the torsion growth is primitive. For each field $K$ we either show its label, or a defining polynomial when $K$ is not in the database.
Additional information
This is the elliptic curve $E$ associated to the [Somos-5 sequence] $\{a(n)\}$. Let $T$ be the $2$-torsion point $(0,0)$, and $P$ the point $(2,2)$ such that $E(\Q) = \Z P \oplus \{0, T\}$. Then the $x$- and $y$-coordinates of $nP+T$ have denominators $d_n^2$ and $d_n^3$ where $$d_n = 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 11, 37, 83, 274, 1217$$ for $1 \leq n \leq 10$, and $d_n = a(n+2)$ in general, satisfying the Somos-5 recurrence $$ d_n d_{n+5} = d_{n+1} d_{n+4} + d_{n+2} d_{n+3}. $$ Thus the regulator of $E$, which is the canonical height $\hat h(P) = 0.143\ldots$, controls the growth of the $a(n)$: asymptotically $\log a_n \sim \frac12 \hat h(P) n^2$.
