چکیده
For each proper divisor d of (q − √q + 1), q being a square power of a prime, maximal curves Fq-covered by the Hermitian curve of genus 1 2 ( q− √ q+1 d − 1) are constructed.

One-point Goppa Codes on Some Genus 3 Curves with Applications in Quantum Error-Correcting Codes
We investigate one-point algebraic geometric codes CL(D, G) associated to maximal curves recently characterized by Tafazolian and Torres given by the affine equation yl = f(x), where f(x) is a separable polynomial of degree r relatively prime to l. We mainly focus on the curve y4 = x3 +x and Picard curves given by the equations y3 = x4-x and y3 = x4 -1. As a result, we obtain exact value of min...
متن کاملCurves covered by the Hermitian curve
A family of maximal curves is investigated that are all quotients of the Hermitian curve. These curves provide examples of curves with the same genus, the same automorphism group and in some cases the same order sequence of the linear series associated to maximal curves, but that are not isomorphic. Dedicated with affection to Zhe-Xian Wan on the occasion of his 80-th birthday
متن کاملOn Maximal Curves and Unramified Coverings
We discuss sufficient conditions for a given curve to be covered by a maximal curve with the covering being unramified; it turns out that the given curve itself will be also maximal. We relate our main result to the question of whether or not a maximal curve is covered by the Hermitian curve. We also provide examples illustrating the results. §1. Let X be a projective, geometrically irreducible...

We classify, up to isomorphism, maximal curves covered by the Hermit-ian curve H by a prime degree Galois covering. We also compute the genus of maximal curves obtained by the quotient of H by several automorphisms groups. Finally we discuss the value for the third largest genus that a maximal curve can have.
متن کاملFp2-MAXIMAL CURVES WITH MANY AUTOMORPHISMS ARE GALOIS-COVERED BY THE HERMITIAN CURVE
Let F be the finite field of order q, q = p with p prime. It is commonly atribute to J.P. Serre the fact that any curve F-covered by the Hermitian curve Hq+1 : y = x + x is also F-maximal. Nevertheless, the converse is not true as the GiuliettiKorchmáros example shows provided that q > 8 and h ≡ 0 (mod 3). In this paper, we show that if an F-maximal curve X of genus g ≥ 2 where q = p is such th...
