On the Fermat-type Equation
We prove that the Fermat-type equation has no solutions
satisfying and when is not a square
mod~. This improves to approximately the Dirichlet density of the
set of prime exponents to which the previous equation is known to not have such
solutions. For the proof we develop a criterion of independent interest to
decide if two elliptic curves with certain type of potentially good reduction
at 2 have symplectically or anti-symplectically isomorphic -torsion modules
