The method is based on the correspondence between the 2-torsion subgroup and the theta hyperplanes to the curve. The correspondence is used to explicitly write down a zero-dimensional scheme whose points correspond to elements of the $2$-torsion subgroup. Using $p$-adic or complex approximations (obtained via Hensel lifting or homotopy continuation and Newton-Raphson) and lattice reduction we are then able to determine the points of our zero-dimensional scheme and hence the $2$-torsion points. We demonstrate the practicality of our method by computing the $2$-torsion of the modular Jacobians $J_{0}\\left( N \\right)$ for $N = 42, 55, 63, 72, 75$. As a result of this we are able to verify the generalised Ogg conjecture for these values.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.13017v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.13017v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"two-torsion-subgroup-of-some-modular","repo_url":"https://github.com/elviralupoian/twotorsionsubgroups","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
