We carry out Hecke summation for the classical Eisenstein series $E_k$ in an adelic setting. The connection between classical and adelic functions is made by explicit calculations of local and global intertwining operators and Whittaker functions. In the process we determine the automorphic representations generated by the $E_k$, in particular for $k=2$, where the representation is neither a pure tensor nor has finite length. We also consider Eisenstein series of weight $2$ with level, and Eisenstein series with character.
We give a classification of the cuspidal automorphic representations attached to rational elliptic curves with a non-trivial torsion point of odd order. Such elliptic curves are parameterizable, and in this paper, we find the necessary and sufficient conditions on the parameters to determine when split or non-split multiplicative reduction occurs. Using this and the known results on when additive reduction occurs for these parametrized curves, we classify the automorphic representations in terms of the parameters.
By Mazurs Torsion Theorem, there are fourteen possibilities for the non-trivial torsion subgroup $T$ of a rational elliptic curve. For each $T$, we consider a parameterized family $E_T$ of elliptic curves with the property that they parameterize all elliptic curves $E/mathbb{Q}$ which contain $T$ in their torsion subgroup. Using these parameterized families, we explicitly classify the N{e}ron type, the conductor exponent, and the local Tamagawa number at each prime $p$ where $E/mathbb{Q}$ has additive reduction. As a consequence, we find all rational elliptic curves with a $2$-torsion or a $3$-torsion point that have global Tamagawa number~$1$.
