example of elliptic curve which does not have potential good reduction

131 Views Asked by At

I'm looking for an example of elliptic curve which does not have potential good reduction.

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over local field $K$(whose integer ring is $R$), then, it is well known that

$E/K$ has potential good reduction is equivalent to it's $j$-invariant $j(E)$is in $R$.

So, for example, if I could find example of $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$, which satisfies $j(E)=1/p$, that's it. There exists elliptic curve which has given $j$-invariant, so I know I know there exists titled elliptic curves, but I'm searching for an simplest one.

Thank you in advance.

Consider the elliptic curve given by $y^2=x^3-ax/p^2+b/p^3$ for $p \geq 5$, where $a,b \in \mathbb{Z}_p^{\times}$ are such that $p|4a^3+27b^2$ and $4a^3+27b^2 \neq 0$. For instance, $a=-3,b=2+p$.
