Using Quadratic Forms to find Curves with Many Points

چکیده

In both algebraic geometry and coding theory, there is a great deal of interest in finding curves with many rational points. In particular, the correspondence between trace codes and Artin-Schreier curves gives a relation between the weights of codewords and the number of rational points on such curves, low weight codewords yielding curves with a large number of rational points. Further, subcodes of these codes correspond to fiber products of Artin-Schrier curves. In this report, I will be following [3].

The family of indefinite binary quadratic forms and elliptic curves over finite fields

In this paper, we consider some properties of the family of indefinite binary quadratic forms and elliptic curves. In the first section, we give some preliminaries from binary quadratic forms and elliptic curves. In the second section, we define a special family of indefinite forms Fi and then we obtain some properties of these forms. In the third section, we consider the number of rational poi...

Optimal Trajectory Generation for a Robotic Worm via Parameterization by B-Spline Curves

In this paper we intend to generate some set of optimal trajectories according to the number of control points has been applied for parameterizing those using B-spline curves. The trajectories are used to generate an optimal locomotion gait in a crawling worm-like robot. Due to gait design considerations it is desired to minimize the required torques in a cycle of gait. Similar to caterpillars,...

Collision-free Piecewise Quadratic Spline with Regular Quadratic Obstacles Collision-free Piecewise Quadratic Spline with Regular Quadratic Obstacles

We classify mutual position of a quadratic Bézier curve and a regular quadric in three dimensional Euclidean space. For given first and last control point, we find the set of all quadratic Bézier curves having no common point with a regular quadric. This system of such quadratic Bézier curves is represented by the set of their admissible middle control points. The spatial problem is reduced to ...

Hyperbolic uniformizations through computations on ternary quadratic forms

Orders in indefinite quaternion algebras provide Fuchsian groups acting on the Poincare half-plane, used to construct the associated Shimura curves. We explain how, by using embedding theory, the elements of those Fuchsian groups depend on representations of integers by suitable ternary quadratic forms. Thus the explicit computation of those representations leads to explicit presentations and f...

A Note on Twists of (y^2=x^3+1)

‎‎In the category of Mordell curves (E_D:y^2=x^3+D) with nontrivial torsion groups we find curves of the generic rank two as quadratic twists of (E_1), ‎and of the generic rank at least two and at least three as cubic twists of (E_1). ‎Previous work‎, ‎in the category of Mordell curves with trivial torsion groups‎, ‎has found infinitely many elliptic curves with ...
