We consider the problem of counting the number of points on a plane curve, defined by a homogeneous polynomial F (x, y, z) โ Fq[x, y, z], which are rational over a ground field Fq. More precisely, we show that if we are given a projective plane curve C of degree n, and if C has only ordinary multipl

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
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.
