Here [[??].sub.i] are the base change maps; [??] is induced from the natural [alpha]-action on the bundle [C.sup.2] and gives an isogeny of degree det([alpha]) at each smooth fibre.
On the other hand, under [Laplace] [equivalent] [??]]K [K.sub.[??]], the pullback of weight 1 modular forms agrees with the det [([alpha]).sup.-1] multiple of the pullback of 1-forms on the fibres by the isogeny [alpha] : [S.sub.[[omega]]] [right arrow] [S.sub.[[omega][alpha]]], because [alpha] multiplies the symplectic form by det([alpha]).
The Isogeny Theorem due to Faltings ([4], [section]5 Korollar 2) implies that
Then the Isogeny Theorem implies that [V.sub.l](E) and[V.sub.l](E') are isomorphic as [G.sub.F]'-modules for any prime '.
Ono [12,17] whose study of the behavior of [tau] under an isogeny explains the presence of Pic(H), and reduces the semisimple case to the simply connected case.
