Towards a Classification of Isolated j-invariants
Abstract
We develop an algorithm to test whether a non-complex multiplication elliptic curve E/Q gives rise to an isolated point of any degree on any modular curve of the form X1(N). This builds on prior work of Zywina which gives a method for computing the image of the adelic Galois representation associated to E. Running this algorithm on all elliptic curves presently in the L-functions and Modular Forms Database and the Stein–Watkins Database gives strong evidence for the conjecture that E gives rise to an isolated point on X1(N) if and only if j(E) = −140625/8,−9317, 351/4, or −162677523113838677.
