Let F be a global function field of characteristic p and E/F an elliptic curve with split multiplicative reduction at the place .: then E can be obtained as a factor of the Jacobian of some Drinfeld modular curve. This fact is used to associate to E a measure m E on P 1 (F . ). By choosing an approp

โฆ Synopsis
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 elliptic surfaces over the algebraic closure of F 2 are unirational.

Let A be a finite abelian group such that there is an elliptic curve defined over a finite field F q with E(F q )$A. We will determine the possible group structures E(F q k) as E varies over all elliptic curves defined over F q with E(F q )$A.
