The second largest number of points of plane curves over finite fields

Abstract

A basis of the ideal of the complement of a linear subspace in a projective space over a finite field is given. As an application, the second largest number of points of plane curves of degree $d$ over the finite field of $q$ elements is also given for $d\ge q+1$.
