Using the link between Galois representations and modular forms established by Serre’s Conjecture, we compute, for every prime p≤2593, a lower bound for the number of isomorphism classes of Galois representation of Q on a two–dimensional vector space over F ¯ p which are irreducible, odd, and unramified outside p.

En utilisant le lien entre représentations galoisiennes et formes modulaires provenant de la Conjecture de Serre, nous calculons, pour tout premier p≤2593, une borne pour le nombre de classes d’isomorphismes des représentations galoisiennes de Q sur un F ¯ p –espace vectoriel de dimension deux qui sont irréductibles, impaires, et non–ramifiées en dehors de p.
