Number of points on a family of curves over a finite field
Abstract
In this paper we study a family of curves obtained by fibre products of hyperelliptic curves. We then exploit this family to construct examples of curves of given genus g over a finite field Fq with many rational points. The results obtained improve the known bounds for a few pairs (q, g).
