✦ Synopsis


We establish a correspondence between a class of Kummer extensions of the rational function "eld and con"gurations of hyperplanes in an a$ne space. Using this correspondence, we obtain explicit curves over "nite "elds with many rational points. Some of our examples almost attain the OesterleH bound.

It is known that Drinfeld modular curves can be used to construct asymptotically optimal towers of curves over finite fields. Using reductions of the Drinfeld modular curves X 0 ðnÞ, we try to find individual curves over finite fields with many rational points. The main idea is to divide by an Atkin

We develop efficient methods for deterministic computations with semi-algebraic sets and apply them to the problem of counting points on curves and Abelian varieties over finite fields. For Abelian varieties of dimension g in projective N space over Fq, we improve Pila's result and show that the pro

Let N q g denote the maximal number of F q -rational points on any curve of genus g over F q . Ihara (for square q) and Serre (for general q) proved that lim sup g→∞ N q g /g > 0 for any fixed q. Here we prove lim g→∞ N q g = ∞. More precisely, we use abelian covers of P 1 to prove lim inf g→∞ N q g

From the existence of algebraic function "elds having some good properties, we obtain some new upper bounds on the bilinear complexity of multiplication in all extensions of the "nite "eld % O , where q is an arbitrary prime power. So we prove that the bilinear complexity of multiplication in the "n
