Dwork hypersurfaces of degree six and Greene's hypergeometric function
arXiv:2010.13079
Abstract
In this paper, we give a formula for the number of rational points on the Dwork hypersurfaces of degree six over finite fields by using Greene's finite-field hypergeometric function, which is a generalization of Goodson's formula for the Dwork hypersurfaces of degree four. Our formula is also a higher-dimensional and a finite field analogue of Matsumoto-Terasoma-Yamazaki's formula. Furthermore, we also explain the relation between our formula and Miyatani's formula.
