Using the Dieudonne theory we will study a reduction of an abelian variety of complex multiplication. Our results may be regarded as a generalization of a classical theorem due to Deuring for a CM-elliptic curve. We will also discuss a…

In this work, we prove the vanishing of the two cohomological group of the higher local field. This generalize the well-known propriety of finite field and one dimensional local field. We apply this result to study the arithmetic of curve…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ be the finite field with $q^2$ elements. Most of the known $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-maximal curves arise as quotient curves of the $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-maximal Hermitian curve $\mathcal{H}_{q}$. After a seminal paper by…

The classification of maximal function fields over a finite field is a difficult open problem, and even determining isomorphism classes among known function fields is challenging in general. We study a particular family of maximal function…

In 2014 A. Degtyarev, I. Itenberg and the author gave a description, up to fiberwise equivariant deformations, of maximally inflected real trigonal curves of type~I (over a base $ B $ of an arbitrary genus) in terms of the combinatorics of…

In this work we study the properties of maximal and minimal curves of genus 3 over finite fields with discriminant -19. We prove that any such curve can be given by an explicit equation of certain form. Using these equations we obtain a…

Baba and Granath generalize Elkies' theorem on infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves to abelian surfaces with quaternionic multiplication of discriminant $6$, whose field of moduli is $\mathbb{Q}$ and which is a Jacobian in…

We provide new upper bounds on N_q(g), the maximum number of rational points on a smooth absolutely irreducible genus-g curve over F_q, for many values of q and g. Among other results, we find that N_4(7) = 21 and N_8(5) = 29, and we show…

Assuming GRH, we present an algorithm which inputs a prime $p$ and outputs the set of fundamental discriminants $D<0$ such that the reduction map modulo a prime above $p$ from elliptic curves with CM by $\order_{D}$ to supersingular…

We give an asymptotic lower bound on the number of field extensions generated by algebraic points on superelliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ with fixed degree $n$ and discriminant bounded by $X$. For $C$ a fixed such curve given by an affine…

We prove two related concentration inequalities concerning the number of rational points of hyperelliptic curves over subsets of a finite field. In particular, we investigate the probability of a large discrepancy between the numbers of…
