An elliptic curve has good reduction of an elliptic curve at if it admits a Weierstrass equation of an elliptic curve over whose reduced projective cubic is nonsingular. Equivalently its minimal discriminant is a -adic unit.
For the given integral short equation,It therefore directly supplies good reduction outside . These three primes cannot be rescued by changing the model. An admissible change of Weierstrass model changes the discriminant by a twelfth power, so its valuation changes by a multiple of twelve. The displayed valuations are not congruent to zero modulo twelve. No integral model can have unit discriminant at any of those primes. The good primes are exactly .
