Extract

Let ψ be the Grossencharacter attached to an elliptic curve E defined over an imaginary quadratic field K of discriminant −dK, and having complex multiplication by the maximal order of K. We denote the conductor of ψ by and fix a Weierstrass model for E with coefficients in ,

whose discriminant is divisible only by primes dividing 6. Let Kab be the abelian closure of K in and choose a fundamental period Ω ∈ for the above model of the curve.
