Gauss sums and Van der Geer--Van der Vlugt curves
Abstract
We study Van der Geer--Van der Vlugt curves in a ramification-theoretic view point. We give explicit formulae on L-polynomials of these curves. As a result, we show that these curves are supersingular and give sufficient conditions for these curves to be maximal or minimal.
