Abstract
Forp≥3 a prime, we compute theQ-rational cuspidal subgroupC(p r) of the JacobianJ 0(p r) of the modular curveX 0(p r). This result is then applied to determine the component group Φ p r of the Néron model ofJ 0(p r) overZ p . This extends results of Lorenzini [7]. We also study the action of the Atkin-Lehner involution on thep-primary part ofC(p r), as well as the effect of degeneracy maps on the component groups.
