Abstract

Recently, Kohel gave algorithms to compute the conductor of the endomorphism ring of an ordinary elliptic curve, given the cardinality of the curve. Using his work, we give a complete description of the structure of curves related via rational l-degree isogenies, a structure we call a volcano. We explain how we can travel through this structure using modular polynomials. The computation of the structure is possible without knowing the cardinality of the curve, and that as a result, we deduce information on the cardinality.
