Abstract
Consider a CM elliptic curve over . Assume that , and let be a point of infinite order. For a rational prime, we denote by the residue field at . If has good reduction at , let be the reduction of at , let be the reduction of ), and let be the subgroup of generated by . Assume that and . Then in this article we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of rational primes , with , for which is cyclic, and we prove that the number of primes , for which is cyclic, is infinite. This result is a generalization of the classical Artin’s primitive root conjecture, in the context of CM elliptic curves; that is, this result is an unconditional proof of Artin’s primitive root conjecture for CM elliptic curves. Artin’s conjecture states that, for any integer or a perfect square (or equivalently , and ), there are infinitely many primes for which is a primitive root (mod ), and an asymptotic formula for such primes is satisfied (this conjecture is not known for any specific ).
