Counting isomorphism classes of pointed hyperelliptic curves of genus 4 over finite fields with even characteristic

This paper is devoted to counting the number of isomorphism classes of pointed hyperelliptic curves over finite fields. We deal with the genus 4 case and the finite fields are of even characteristics. The number of isomorphism classes is computed and the explicit formulae are given. This number can be represented as a polynomial in q of degree 7, where q is the order of the finite field. The result can be used in the classification problems and it is useful for further studies of hyperelliptic curve cryptosystems, e.g. it is of interest for research on implementing the arithmetics of curves of low genus for cryptographic purposes. It could also be of interest for point counting problems; both on moduli spaces of curves, and on finding the maximal number of points that a pointed hyperelliptic curve over a given finite field may have.     

Isomorphism classes of elliptic and hyperelliptic curves over finite fields

We give the number and representatives of isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of genus g defined over finite fields , g=1,2,3. These results have applications to hyperelliptic curve cryptography.     

Isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of genus 2 over finite fields with characteristic 2

In this paper we study the computation of the number of isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of genus 2 over finite fields Fq with q even. We show the formula of the number of isomorphism classes, that is, for q = 2m, if 4 m, then the formula is 2q3 q2 - q; if 4 | m, then the formula is 2q3 q2 - q 8. These results can be used in the classification problems and the hyperelliptic curve cryptosystems.     

A Review on the Isomorphism Classes of Hyperelliptic Curves of Genus 2 over Finite Fields Admitting a Weierstrass Point

The reduced equations for the isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves of genus 2 admitting a Weierstrass point over a finite field of arbitrary characteristic, are shown and the number of such classes is included. This work picks up in a unified way a series of previous results published by several authors by using different methodologies. These classifications are of interest in designing and implementing of hyperelliptic curve cryptosystems.     

Enumeration of nilpotent loops via cohomology

The isomorphism problem for centrally nilpotent loops can be tackled by methods of cohomology. We develop tools based on cohomology and linear algebra that either lend themselves to direct count of the isomorphism classes (notably in the case of nilpotent loops of order 2q, q a prime), or lead to efficient classification computer programs. This allows us to enumerate all nilpotent loops of order less than 24.     

The statistics of the number of rational points in the hyperelliptic ensemble over a finite field

We study the distribution of the numbers of \({F_{{q^r}}}\)-rational points of hyperelliptic curves over a finite field F_q in odd characteristic. This extends the result of Kurlberg and Rudnick [4]. We also study the distribution of the number of \({F_{{q^r}}}\)-rational points and the trace of high powers of the Frobenius class of real hyperelliptic curves over a finite field F_q in even characteristic.     

Transitive Partial Parallelisms of Deficiency One

A new construction of parallelisms, determined by Johnson, is valid for both the finite and infinite cases and gives a variety of partial parallelisms of deficiency one that admit a transitive group. Since there are extensions to parallelisms, one obtains parallelisms admitting a collineation group fixing one spread and transitive on the remaining spreads. The construction permits a counting of the isomorphism classes of the parallelisms. In this article, we enumerate the isomorphism classes of the parallelisms and show that there are at least 1  +  [(q −  3) / 2 r ] mutually non-isomorphic parallelisms in PG(3,q  =  p^r), for p odd. Furthermore, we provide a group-theoretic characterization of the constructed parallelisms.     

Counting hyperelliptic curves

We find a closed formula for the number hyp(g) of hyperelliptic curves of genus g over a finite field k=Fq of odd characteristic. These numbers hyp(g) are expressed as a polynomial in q with integer coefficients that depend on g and the set of divisors of q−1 and q+1. As a by-product we obtain a closed formula for the number of self-dual curves of genus g. A hyperelliptic curve is defined to be self-dual if it is k-isomorphic to its own hyperelliptic twist.     

Preinjective modules and finite representation type of artinian rings

Let R be a left artinian ring such that every finitely presented right .ft-module is of finite endolength. It is shown that the cardinality of the set of isomorphism classes of preinjective right R-modules is less than or equal to the cardinality of the set of isomorphism classes of preprojective left R-modules, and R is of finite representation type if and only if these cardinal numbers are finite and equal to each other. As a consequence, we deduce a theorem, due to Herzog [17], asserting that a left pure semisimple ring R is of finite representation type if and only if the number of non-isomorphic preinjective right R-modules is the same as the number of non-isomorphic preprojective left .R-modules. Further applications are also given to provide new criteria for artinian rings with self-duality and artinian Pi-rings to be of finite representation type, which imply in particular the validity of the pure semisimple conjecture for these classes of rings.     

The q-Analogue of the Alternating Group and Its Representations

We define the new algebra. This algebra has a parameter q. The defining relations of this algebra at q = 1 coincide with the basic relations of the alternating group. We also give the new subalgebra of the Hecke algebra of type A which is isomorphic to this algebra. This algebra is free of rank half that of the Hecke algebra. Hence this algebra is regarded as a q-analogue of the alternating group.All the isomorphism classes of the irreducible representations of this algebra and the q-analogue of the branching rule between the symmetric group and the alternating group are obtained.     

Two-dimensional flag-transitive planes revisited

This paper shows that the odd order two-dimensional flag-transitive planes constructed by Kantor-Suetake constitute the same family of planes as those constructed by Baker-Ebert. Moreover, for orders satisfying a modest number theoretical assumption this family consists of all possible such planes of that order. In particular, it is shown that the number of isomorphism classes of (non-Desarguesian) two-dimensional flag-transitive affine planes of order q ² is precisely (q–1)/2 when q is an odd prime and precisely (q–1)/2e when q=p ^e is an odd prime power with exponent e that is a power of 2. An enumeration is given in other cases that uses the Möbius inversion formula.This work was partially supported by NSA grant MDA 904-95-H-1013.This work was partially supported by NSA grant MDA 904-94-H-2033.     

On the Isomorphism Classes of Transversals

In this article we prove that there does not exist a subgroup H of a finite group G such that the number of isomorphism classes of right transversals of H in G is two.     

On the Isomorphism Classes of Transversals-II

Let G be a finite group and H a subgroup of G. Each right transversal of H in G has a right-quasigroup structure (induced by the binary operation of G). In this article, we prove that the index of H in G is 3 if the number of isomorphism classes of right transversals of H in G is 3, where the isomorphism classes are formed with respect to induced right-quasigroup structures.     

A Family of Finite Simple Groups Which Are 2-Recognizable by Their Elements Order

Abstract

Let G be a finite group and ω(G) the set of all orders of elements in G. Denote by h(ω(G)) the number of isomorphism classes of finite groups H satisfying ω(H) = ω(G), and put h(G) = h(ω(G)). A group G is called k-recognizable if h(G) = k < ∞ , otherwise G is called non-recognizable. In the present article we will show that the simple groups PSL(3, q), where q ≡ ±2(mod 5) and (6, (q ? 1)/2) = 2, are 2-recognizable. Therefore if q is a prime power and q ≡ 17, 33, 53 or 57 (mod 60), then the groups PSL(3, q) are 2-recognizable. Hence proving the existing of an infinite families of 2-recognizable simple groups.     

Commutative Algebras with Radical Cube Zero

Abstract

We present “canonical forms” of finite dimensional (quasi-Frobenius) commutative algebras Λ over a field k such that the radical cubed is zero and Λ modulo the radical is a product of copies of k. We also determine the isomorphism classes of the algebras Λ over some typical fields.     

The combinatorial properties of the hyperplanes of DW(5, q) arising from embedding

In De Bruyn Discrete math(to appear), one of the authors proved that there are six isomorphism classes of hyperplanes in the dual polar space DW(5, q), q even, which arise from its Grassmann-embedding. In the present paper, we determine the combinatorial properties of these hyperplanes. Specifically, for each such hyperplane H we calculate the number of quads Q for which is a certain configuration of points in Q and the number of points for which is a certain configuration of points in . By purely combinatorial techniques, we are also able to show that the set of hyperplanes of DW(5, q), q odd, which arise from its Grassmann-embedding can be divided into six subclasses if one takes only into account the above-mentioned combinatorial properties. A complete classification of all hyperplanes of DW(5, q), q odd, which arise from its Grassmann-embedding, i.e. the division of the above-mentioned six classes into isomorphism classes, will unlike in De Bruyn (to appear) most likely need a group-theoretical approach.

Counting the number of indecomposable representations and a q-analogue of the Weyl-Kac denominator identity of type $$ \tilde B_n $$

By using Frobenius maps and F-stable representations, we count the number of isomorphism classes of indecomposable representations with the fixed dimension vector of a species of type over a finite field, first, and then, as an application, give a q-analogue of the Weyl-Kac denominator identity of type .

On Moduli Spaces,Equidistribution, Estimates,and Rational Points of Algebraic Curves

We consider the moduli spaces of hyperelliptic curves, Artin–Schreier coverings, and some other families of curves of this type over fields of characteristic p. By using the Postnikov method, we obtain expressions for the Kloosterman sums. The distribution of angles of the Kloosterman sums was investigated on a computer. For small prime p, we study rational points on curves y ² = f(x). We consider the problem of the accuracy of estimates of the number of rational points of hyperelliptic curves and the existence of rational points of curves of the indicated type on the moduli spaces of these curves over a prime finite field.     

The Ring of Modules with Endo-permutation Source

In this paper we consider certain subalgebras of the Green algebra (representation algebra) of a finite group G. One such algebra is spanned by the isomorphism classes of all indecomposable modules whose source is an endo-permutation module. This algebra can be embedded into a finite direct product of Laurent polynomial rings in finitely many variables over a field. Another such algebra is spanned by the isomorphism classes of all irreducibly generated modules. When G is p-solvable then this algebra is finite-dimensional and split semisimple.R.
