On the ramification of modular parametrizations at the cusps
We investigate the ramification of modular parametrizations of elliptic curves over Q at the cusps. We prove that if the modular form associated to the elliptic curve has minimal level among its twists by Dirichlet characters, then the modular parametrization is unramified at the cusps. The proof uses Bushnell’s formula …
