In order to do so, we partly answer a question by Ono. As our goal is just to illustrate how p-adic geometry can be used in this context, we focus on a relatively simple case, in the hope that others will try to obtain the strongest and most general results. For example, for p=2, a result stronger than Thm.1 is proved in [Boylan], and a result on some modular curves of genus zero can be found in [Osburn] . It should be easy to apply our method, because of its local nature, to modular curves of arbitrary level, as well as to Shimura curves.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-02-10T15:08:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G15", "11F11", "14G35" ], "keywords": [ "p-adic geometry", "singular moduli", "modular curves", "local nature", "genus zero" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 3, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......2213E" } } }
