Linnik's Theorem for Sato-Tate Laws on Elliptic Curves with Complex Multiplication

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with complex multiplication (CM), and for each prime $p$ of good reduction, let $a_E(p) = p + 1 - \#E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ denote the trace of Frobenius. By the Hasse bound, $a_E(p) = 2\sqrt{p} \cos θ_p$ for a unique $θ_p \in [0, π]$. In this paper, we prove that the least prime $p$ such that $θ_p \in [α, β] \subset [0, π]$ satisfies $p \ll \left(\frac{N_E}{β- α}\right)^A,$ where $N_E$ is the conductor of $E$ and the implied constant and exponent $A > 2$ are absolute and effectively computable. Our result is an analogue for CM elliptic curves of Linnik's Theorem for arithmetic progressions, which states that the least prime $p \equiv a \pmod q$ for $(a,q)=1$ satisfies $p \ll q^L$ for an absolute constant $L > 0$.
