Construction of elliptic curves with good reduction outside a finite set of primes
A theorem of Shafarevich states that, over a number field `K`, given any finite set `S` of primes of `K`, there are (up to isomorphism) only a finite set of elliptic curves defined over `K` with good reduction at all primes outside `S`. An explicit form of the theorem with an algorithm for finding this finite set was given in "Finding all elliptic curves with good reduction outside a given set of primes" by John Cremona and Mark Lingham, Experimental Mathematics 16 No.3 (2007), 303-312. The method requires computation of the class and unit groups of `K` as well as all the `S`-integral points on a collection of auxiliary elliptic curves defined over `K`.
This implementation (April 2009) is only for the case `K=\QQ`, where in many cases the determination of the necessary sets of `S`-integral points is possible. The main user-level function is :func:`EllipticCurves_with_good_reduction_outside_S`, defined in constructor.py. Users should note carefully the following points:
(1) the number of auxiliary curves to be considered is exponential in the size of `S` (specifically, `2.6^s` where `s=|S|`).
(2) For some of the auxiliary curves it is impossible at present to provably find all the `S`-integral points using the current algorithms, which rely on first finding a basis for their Mordell-Weil groups using 2-descent. A warning is output in cases where the set of points (and hence the final output) is not guaranteed to be complete. Using the ``proof=False`` flag suppresses these warnings.
EXAMPLES: We find all elliptic curves with good reduction outside 2, listing the label of each::
sage: [e.label() for e in EllipticCurves_with_good_reduction_outside_S([2])] # long time (5s on sage.math, 2013) ['32a1', '32a2', '32a3', '32a4', '64a1', '64a2', '64a3', '64a4', '128a1', '128a2', '128b1', '128b2', '128c1', '128c2', '128d1', '128d2', '256a1', '256a2', '256b1', '256b2', '256c1', '256c2', '256d1', '256d2']
Secondly we try the same with `S={11}`; note that warning messages are printed without ``proof=False`` (unless the optional database is installed: two of the auxiliary curves whose Mordell-Weil bases are required have conductors 13068 and 52272 so are in the database)::
sage: [e.label() for e in EllipticCurves_with_good_reduction_outside_S([11], proof=False)] # long time (13s on sage.math, 2011) ['11a1', '11a2', '11a3', '121a1', '121a2', '121b1', '121b2', '121c1', '121c2', '121d1', '121d2', '121d3']

Proof flag: The algorithm used requires determining all S-integral points on several auxiliary curves, which in turn requires the computation of their generators. This is not always possible (even in theory) using current knowledge.
The value of this flag is passed to the function which computes generators of various auxiliary elliptic curves, in order to find their S-integral points. Set to ``False`` if the default (``True``) causes warning messages, but note that you can then not rely on the set of invariants returned being complete.
