Let E be an elliptic curve over the rationals that does not have complex multiplication. For each prime ℓ, the action of the absolute Galois group on the ℓ-torsion points of E can be given in terms of a Galois representation ρE,ℓ:Gal(Q¯/Q)→GL2(Fℓ). An important theorem of Serre says that ρE,ℓ is surjective for all sufficiently large ℓ. In this paper, we describe a simple algorithm based on Serre's proof that can quickly determine the finite set of primes ℓ for which ρE,ℓ is not surjective. We will also give some improved bounds for Serre's theorem.
