Takagi, Toshikazu The cuspidal class number formula for the modular curves \(X_1(2p)\). (English) Zbl 1277.11068 J. Math. Soc. Japan 64, No. 1, 23-85, erratum 87-89 (2012). Summary: Let \(p\) be a prime not equal to 2 or 3. We determine the group of all modular units on the modular curve \(X_1(2p)\), and its full cuspidal class number. We mention a fact concerning the non-existence of torsion points of order 5 or 7 of elliptic curves over \(\mathbb Q\) of square-free conductor \(n\) as an application of a result by A. Agashe [Rational torsion in elliptic curves and the cuspidal subgroup, preprint, http://arxiv-web3.library.cornell.edu/abs/0810.5181] and the cuspidal class number formula for \(X_0(n)\). We also state the formula for the order of the subgroup of the \(\mathbb Q\)-rational torsion subgroup of \(J_1(2p)\) generated by the \(\mathbb Q\)-rational cuspidal divisors of degree 0.In the erratum we correct a theorem on the conductor of elliptic curves over \(\mathbb Q\) given in the introduction.
