Computer search for curves with many points among abelian covers of genus 2 curves

Karl Rökaeus

Published 2011-06-25Version 1

Using class field theory one associates to each curve C over a finite field, and each subgroup G of its divisor class group, unramified abelian covers of C whose genus is determined by the index of G. By listing class groups of curves of small genus one may get examples of curves with many points; we do this for all curves of genus 2 over the fields of cardinality 5,7,9,11,13 and 16, giving new entries for the tables of curves with many points (www.manYPoints.org).
