We provide in this paper an upper bound for the number of rational points on a curve defined over a one variable function field over a finite field. The bound only depends on the curve and the field, but not on the Jacobian variety of the…
We give a construction of singular curves with many rational points over finite fields. This construction enables us to prove some results on the maximum number of rational points on an absolutely irreducible projective algebraic curve…
We study the number of rational points of smooth projective curves over finite fields in some relative situations in the spirit of a previous paper from an euclidean point of vue. We prove some kinds of relative Weil bounds, derived from…
This is an expository paper concerning topics on rational points of curves defined over finite fields based on a paper by St"ohr and Voloch.
For a non-degenerate irreducible curve $C$ of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, we prove that the number $N_q(C)$ of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points of $C$ satisfies the inequality $N_q(C) \leq (d-2)q+1$. Our result improves…
In this paper we give an upper bound on the number of rational points on an irreducible curve $C$ of degree $\delta$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ lying on a Frobenius classical surface $S$ embedded in $\mathbb{P}^3$. This…
We show that for all finite fields F_q, there exists a curve C over F_q of genus 3 such that the number of rational points on C is within 3 of the Serre-Weil upper or lower bound. For some q, we also obtain improvements on the upper bound…
We push further the classical proof of Weil upper bound for the number of rational points of an absolutely irreducible smooth projective curve $X$ over a finite field in term of euclidean relationships between the Neron Severi classes in…
For a given genus $g \geq 1$, we give lower bounds for the maximal number of rational points on a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g$ over ${\mathbb F}_q$. As a consequence of Katz-Sarnak theory, we first get for any…
Using Weil descent, we give bounds for the number of rational points on two families of curves over finite fields with a large abelian group of automorphisms: Artin-Schreier curves of the form $y^q-y=f(x)$ with $f\in\Fqr[x]$, on which the…
We give examples of sequences of smooth non-isotrivial curves for every genus at least two, defined over a rational function field of positive characteristic, such that the (finite) number of rational points of the curves in the sequence…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field with $q$ elements. In this work, we use characters to give the number of rational points on suitable curves of low degree over $\mathbb{F}_q$ in terms of the number of rational points on elliptic…
For Artin-Schreier curve y^q -y = f(x) defined over a finite field F_q of q elements, we show that the Weil bound for the number of the rational points over extension fields of F_q can often be greatly improved, essentially removing an…
We study arithmetical and geometrical properties of {\it maximal curves}, that is, curves defined over the finite field $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ whose number of $\mathbb F_{q^2}$-rational points reachs the Hasse-Weil upper bound. Under a…
The problem of constructing curves with many points over finite fields has received considerable attention in the recent years. Using the class field theory approach, we construct new examples of curves ameliorating some of the known…
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…
The effective application of the St\"ohr-Voloch theory for the linear system of plane curves of a fixed degree to bound the number of rational points of a family of plane curves defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$ requires the characterization of…
We prove the following result which was conjectured by Stichtenoth and Xing: let $g$ be the genus of a projective, irreducible non-singular curve over the finite field $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ and whose number of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$-rational points…
We provide new explicit formulas for bounding the number of rational points on singular curves over finite fields. This enables us to obtain exact values of N q (g, $\pi$) which is defined as the maximum number of rational points over F q…
For a nondegenerate irreducible curve $C$ of degree $d$ in ${\Bbb P}^r$ over ${\Bbb F}_q$ with $r \geq 3$, we prove that the number $N_q(C)$ of ${\Bbb F}_q$-points of $C$ satisfies the inequality $N_q(C) \leq (d-1)q +1$, which is known as…
