On $F_{q^2}$-maximal curves of genus $\mathbf{\frac{1}{6}(q-3)q}$Miriam Abdón and Fernando TorresDep. Matemática, PUC-Rio, Marquês de S. Vicente 225, 22453-900, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, e-mail: miriam@mat.puc-rio.br; IMECC-UNICAMP, Cx. P. 6065, Campinas, 13083-970-SP, Brazil e-mail: ftorres@ime.unicamp.brAbstract: We show that an $\fq$-maximal curve of genus $\frac{1}{6}(q-3)q>0$ is either a non-reflexive space curve of degree $q+1$ whose tangent surface is also non-reflexive, or it is uniquely determined, up to isomorphism, by a plane model of Artin-Schreier type whenever $ q\geq 27$. Keywords: finite field, maximal curve, non-reflexive variety, Artin-Schreier extension, additive polynomial Classification (MSC2000): 11G20; 14G05, 14G10 Full text of the article:
