Abstract

It has been shown by J.-P. Serre that the largest possible number of F(q)-rational points on curves of small genus over the finite field F, of q elements depends on the divisibility property p vertical bar [2q(1/2)], where p is the characteristic of F(q). In this paper, we obtain upper and lower bounds on the number of prime powers q
