Growth of torsion in number fields

The number fields $K$ of degree less than 24 such that $E(K)_{\rm tors}$ is strictly larger than $E(\Q)_{\rm tors}$ $\cong \Z/{3}\Z$ are as follows:

$[K:\Q]$ $K$ $E(K)_{\rm tors}$ Base change curve
$2$ \(\Q(\sqrt{-3}) \) \(\Z/3\Z \oplus \Z/3\Z\) 2.0.3.1-81.1-CMa1

$3$ \(\Q(\zeta_{9})^+\) \(\Z/9\Z\) 3.3.81.1-27.1-a4

We only show fields where the torsion growth is primitive.

Iwasawa invariants

$p$ 2 3
Reduction type ss add
$\lambda$-invariant(s) 0,5 -
$\mu$-invariant(s) 0,0 -

All Iwasawa $\lambda$ and $\mu$-invariants for primes $p\ge 5$ of good reduction are zero.

An entry - indicates that the invariants are not computed because the reduction is additive.

$p$-adic regulators

All $p$-adic regulators are identically $1$ since the rank is $0$.

Additional information

An explicit birational isomorphism from $XY(X+Y)=Z^3$ to $y^2+y = x^3$ is $(x,y) = (Z/X, Y/X)$. The $3$-isogeny from the Fermat cubic $X_1^3 + Y_1^3 = Z_1^3$ is simply $(X:Y:Z) = (X_1^3 : Y_1^3 : X_1 Y_1 Z_1)$.
