supersingular
An elliptic curve over a field of characteristic defined by the cubic equation is called supersingular if the coefficient of in is zero.
A supersingular elliptic curve is said to have Hasse invariant ; an ordinary (i.e. non-supersingular) elliptic curve is said to have Hasse invariant .
This is equivalent to many other conditions. is supersingular iff the invariant differential is exact.Also, is supersingular iff is nonzero where is induced from the Frobenius morphism .
