How to know the j-invariant of the modular elliptic curve from the modular form?

$begingroup$


How do people compute the $j$-invariant of an elliptic curve $E$ over $mathbb Q$ from the associated modular form $f=sum_{n=1}^{infty} a_nq^n$? In other words, how to compute (at least giving some estimates) $j(E)$ using $a_n$?

    Silverman AEC.VIII.8.3 explains the minimal equation, this is an arithmetic choice of curve $E$. The $g_2,g_3$ of the lattice of the newform gives an analytic canonical choice $E'$. There is a 3rd one : from the maps $X_0(N)$ to $X_0(N)_{alg-mathbb{Q}}$ to $J_0(N)_{alg-mathbb{Q}}$ containing the algebraic canonical curve $E''$. I think the point is they know the latter Jacobian has good reduction for $p nmid N$, they transfer it to $E''$, relating $E,E''$ outside of $p | N$. Then they probably make $X_0(N) to J_0(N)_{alg-mathbb{Q}}$ explicit.

This is not a well-defined question, because the modular form $f$ corresponds to an isogeny class of elliptic curves, not a single elliptic curve; and the elliptic curves in the isogeny class can have different $j$-invariants.



However, if you ask for the $j$-invariant of some elliptic curve in the isogeny class, then this is a very well-studied problem, and there is an effective way of doing so using the period lattice. This is all described comprehensively and beautifully in John Cremona's book Algorithms for modular elliptic curves (available for free online here); the algorithm you're after is described in section 2.14.

    @zzy $E,E', u:E to E',u^*u = m$ elliptic curves and pair of dual isogeny everything defined over a same number field. For almost all primes : everything has good reduction so the curves $tilde{E},tilde{E}'$ are isogeneous and their Frobenius $phi,phi'$ satisfy $u^* phi' = phi u^*, phi'u =uphi,u^*phi u = mphi$ so $phi'^2-t'phi'+q=0$ means $0=u^*phi'^2u-t'u^*phi'u+u^*qu =phi^2 m - t' m phi+qm = 0$ so $t' = t$. Whence $L(s,E) = L(s,E')$ up to finitely many primes, and the corresponding modular forms have the same newform representative.
