On the Hermitian curve and its intersections with some conics

Commutative Algebra 2016-04-01 v1

Abstract

We classify completely the intersections of the Hermitian curve with parabolas in the affine plane. To obtain our results we employ well-known algebraic methods for finite fields and geometric properties of the curve automorphisms. In particular, we provide explicit counting formulas that have also applications to some Hermitian codes.
