Endomorphism Rings and Isogenies Classes for Drinfeld Modules of Rank 2 Over Finite Fields

Abstract

Let $\Phi $ be a Drinfeld $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]$-module of rank 2, over a finite field $L$, a finite extension of $n$ degrees of a finite field with $q$ elements $\mathbf{F}_{q}$. Let $m$ be the extension degrees of $ L$ over the field $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]/P$, $P$ is the $\mathbf{F}%_{q}[T]$-characteristic of $L$, and $d$ the degree of the polynomial $P$. We will discuss about a many analogies points with elliptic curves. We start by the endomorphism ring of a Drinfeld $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]$-module of rank 2, End$_{L}\Phi $, and we specify the maximality conditions and non maximality conditions as a $\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]$-order in the ring of division End$_{L}\Phi \otimes _{\mathbf{F}_{q}[T]}% \mathbf{F}_{q}(T)$, in the next point we will interested to the characteristic polynomial of a Drinfeld module of rank 2 and used it to calculate the number of isogeny classes for such module, at last we will interested to the Characteristic of Euler-Poincare $\chi_{\Phi}$ and we will calculated the cardinal of this ideals.
