Local root numbers of elliptic curves over dyadic fields

Naoki Imai

Abstract

We consider an elliptic curve over a dyadic field with additive, potentially good reduction. We study the finite Galois extension of the dyadic field generated by the three-torsion points of the elliptic curve. As an application, we give a formula to calculate the local root number of the elliptic curve over the dyadic field.
