Let C be a smooth plane quartic curve over a field k and k C be a rational function field of C. We develop a field theory for k C in the following method. Let π P be the projection from C to a line l with a center P ∈ 2 . The π P induces an extension field k C /k 1 , where k 1 is a maximal rational

✦ Synopsis
We study the structure of function fields of plane curves following our method Ž . developed previously K. Miura and H. Yoshihara, 2000, J. Algebra 226, 283᎐294 .
Ž . Let K be the function field of a smooth plane curve C of degree d G 4 and let K be a maximal rational subfield of K for P g ސ 2 . We study the field extension P KrK from a geometrical viewpoint. Especially, we give a sufficient condition that P the Galois group of the Galois closure of KrK becomes a full symmetric group.

In this paper we describe an algorithm for computing the dual of a projective plane curve. The algorithm requires no extension of the field of coefficients of the curve and runs in polynomial time.
In this paper we introduce a definition for L-functions associated to an Abelian covering of algebraic curves with singularities. The main result is a proof that this definition is compatible with the definition of the zeta function of a singular curve.
Using Drinfeld modular curves we determine the places of supersingular reduction of elliptic curves over F 2 r( T) with certain conductors. This enables us to classify and describe explicitly all elliptic curves over F 2 r( T ) having a conductor of degree 4. Our results also imply that extremal ell
