Abstract
It is known that if is a prime number and is an elliptic curve without complex multiplication, then the image of the mod Galois representation
of is either the whole of , or is contained in the normaliser of a nonsplit Cartan subgroup of . In this paper, we show that when , the image of is either , or the full normaliser of a nonsplit Cartan subgroup. We use this to show the following result, partially settling a question of Najman. For , let denote the set of primes for which there exists an elliptic curve defined over and without complex multiplication admitting a degree isogeny defined over a number field of degree . We show that, for , we have
