Abstract

Volcanoes of ℓ–isogenies of elliptic curves are a special case of graphs with a cycle called crater. In this paper, given an elliptic curve E of a volcano of ℓ–isogenies, we present a condition over an endomorphism ϕ of E in order to determine which ℓ–isogenies of E are non-descending. The endomorphism

ϕ is defined as the crater cycle of an m–volcano where E is located, with m 6= ℓ. The condition is feasible when ϕ is a distortion map for a subgroup of order ℓ of E. We also provide some relationships among the crater sizes of volcanoes of m–isogenies whose elliptic curves belong to a volcano of ℓ–isogenies.
