= Supersingular prime (algebraic number theory)
{wiki=Supersingular_prime_(algebraic_number_theory)}
In algebraic number theory, supersingular primes are particularly interesting as they relate to the study of elliptic curves and the behavior of their reduction modulo prime numbers. Specifically, a prime \\( p \\) is called **supersingular** for an elliptic curve \\( E \\) over the finite field \\( \\mathbb\{F\}_p \\) if the reduced curve \\( E \\mod p \\) has a specific structure that makes it "supersingular.
