The Number of Rational Points On Genus 4 Hyperelliptic Supersingular Curves in Characteristic 2
arXiv:0911.2128
Abstract
One of the big questions in the area of curves over finite fields concerns the distribution of the numbers of points: Which numbers occur as the number of points on a curve of genus ? The same question can be asked of various subclasses of curves. In this article we classify the possibilities for the number of points on genus 4 hyperelliptic supersingular curves over finite fields of order , odd.
