On the generalized Ree curve

Let p be an odd prime, let q_0 := p^s with s>= 1, and put q := p q_0^2. We study the smooth projective curve R_{p,s} with function field F_q(x,y,z), y^q - y = x^{q_0}(x^q - x), z^q - z = x^{2q_0}(x^q - x). The two-equation layer is already present in the ray-class and big-action literature; for p = 3 it gives the class...

Sharp bounds and gap phenomena for large $p$-subgroups of automorphism groups of curves

Let $X$ be a curve of genus $g\ge2$ over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic $p$, and let $G=\mathrm{Aut}(X)$. A theorem of Giulietti and Korchmaros shows that if $G$ fixes no point and a $p$-subgroup $S\le G_P$ satisfies $|S|>\frac{p}{p-1}g$, then $X$ is one of the classical hyperelliptic, Hermitian, o...

A Quadratic Bound for Automorphism Groups of Curves of Positive $p$-Rank in Odd Characteristic

Let $X$ be a nonsingular projective curve of genus $g\ge2$ over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic $p$. Giulietti and Korchm\'aros established a quadratic genus bound with constant $900$ forcing zero $p$-rank for curves of even genus. We extend this bound to odd genus: for every $g\ge2$, positive $p$-r...

A characterization of the Ree curve

Let $q=3q_0^2$, where $q_0=3^s$ and $s\ge3$. We prove that a smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve over $\F_q$ with $q^3+1$ rational points and genus \[ \frac32q_0(q-1)(q+q_0+1) \] is $\F_q$-isomorphic to the Ree curve.

Large automorphism groups of curves of zero $p$-rank in odd characteristic

Let $\cX$ be a curve of genus $g\ge2$ and zero $p$-rank over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic $p$. We classify the pairs $(\cX,G)$ for which $G\le\Aut(\cX)$ has no common fixed point and $|G|>24g(g-1)$. For $g\ge4$, the curves are explicit cyclic covers of the projective line, the Hermitian curve, or...

Nakajima-extremal Artin--Schreier covers of ordinary elliptic curves in characteristic $2$

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$ and let $q=2^h$, $h\ge3$. We construct ordinary bielliptic curves $X$ of genus $q+1$ for which \[ \Aut(X)\cong \Dih(C_q)\times C_2, \qquad |\Aut(X)|=4q=4(g(X)-1). \] These curves realize case \textup{(ib)} in the classification of Giulietti--Korchm\'aros an...

Transitive automorphism groups of maximal curves

Let $q=p^h$ be an odd prime power and let $X/\F_{q^2}$ be a maximal curve of genus at least two. We classify the curves for which the full geometric automorphism group is transitive on the set of $\F_{q^2}$-rational points. We prove that, if $h>1$, then $X$ is the Hermitian curve. If $h=1$, the only additional possibil...

Explicit LCP of MDS Codes and LCD Codes on Hyperelliptic Curves via Mumford Representation

We study algebraic geometry codes on hyperelliptic curves of genus $g \geq 2$ with complementarity properties. Our first contribution is a characterization of non-special divisors of degree $g$ and $g-1$ via the polynomial degrees of their reduced Mumford representation, reducing a classical hard geometric problem to a...
