Finding zeta function of an elliptic curve












6












$begingroup$



Let $p equiv 3 pmod 4$ be a prime, and $E/F_{p^r}$ be
the elliptic curve given by $y^2 = x^3 − x$. Find the zeta-function of
$E/F_p$ and use it to determine $|E(F_{p^r} )|$ for all r>0.

    Hint: Look at the polynomial $m(x)=x^3-x.$ It is odd, right? Because $pequiv3pmod4$ exactly one of $m(a)$ and $m(-a)$ is a quadratic residue (obviously $aneq0,pm1$).

    @Klangen See my edit for a simpler way of typesetting a congruence. Also, the question is 3 years old, and the asker hasn't been heard from since then. It is safe to assume that the eventual homework is overdue. If you are inclined to answer the question, feel free to do so! The question is a bit lacking in context though.
