Abstract:The number N of rational points on an algebraic curve of genus g over a finite field 
$${mathbb{F}}_q $$
satisfies the Hasse–Weil bound 
$$N leqslant q + 1 + 1gsqrt q $$
. A curve that attains this bound is called maximal. With 
$$g_0 = frac{1}{2}(q - sqrt q )$$
and 
$$g_1 = frac{1}{4}(sqrt q - 1)^2 $$
, it is known that maximalcurves have 
$$g = g_0 or g leqslant {text{ }}g_1 $$
. Maximal curves with 
$$g = g_0 or g_1 $$
have been characterized up to isomorphism. A natural genus to be studied is 
$$g_2 = frac{1}{8}(sqrt q - 1)(sqrt q - 3),$$
and for this genus there are two non-isomorphic maximal curves known when 
$$sqrt q equiv 3 (bmod 4)$$
. Here, a maximal curve with genus g2 and a non-singular plane model is characterized as a Fermat curve of degree 
$$frac{1}{2}(sqrt q + 1)$$
.
