"Entanglements of Division Fields of Elliptic Curves"
Central objects in the study of elliptic curves are the fields of definition of the points of order n. Relatively little is known about the way in which a fixed elliptic curve's division fields can intersect. In this talk, we lay the foundations for a systematic study of the entanglements of division fields of elliptic curves from a group theoretic perspective. In particular, we classify the way in which two prime-level division fields can intersect for infinitely many elliptic curves. This is joint work with Jackson S. Morrow.
