When \(n > g\), the frobenius polynomial is computed from the numbers of points of the curve over the first \(g\) extension, so that computing the number of points on extensions of degree \(n > g\) is not much more expensive than for \(n == g\):

count_points_frobenius_polynomial(n=1, f=None)[source]

Count the number of points on the curve over the first \(n\) extensions of the base field by computing the frobenius polynomial.

EXAMPLES:

sage: K = GF(49999)
sage: R.<t> = PolynomialRing(K)
sage: H = HyperellipticCurve(t^19 + t + 1)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> K = GF(Integer(49999))
>>> R = PolynomialRing(K, names=('t',)); (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> H = HyperellipticCurve(t**Integer(19) + t + Integer(1))

The following computation takes a long time as the complete characteristic polynomial of the frobenius is computed:

sage: H.count_points_frobenius_polynomial(3) # long time, 20s on a Corei7 (when computed before the following test of course)

As the polynomial is cached, further computations of number of points are really fast:

frobenius_polynomial_cardinalities(a=None)[source]

Compute the charpoly of frobenius, as an element of \(\ZZ[x]\), by computing the number of points on the curve over \(g\) extensions of the base field where \(g\) is the genus of the curve.

Warning

This is highly inefficient when the base field or the genus of the curve are large.

The method currently lists points on the plane projective model, that is the closure in \(\mathbb{P}^2\) of the curve defined by \(y^2+hy=f\). This means that one point \((0:1:0)\) at infinity is returned if the degree of the curve is at least 4 and \(\deg(f)>\deg(h)+1\). This point is a singular point of the plane model. Later implementations may consider a smooth model instead since that would be a more relevant object. Then, for a curve whose only singularity is at \((0:1:0)\), the point at infinity would be replaced by a number of rational points of the smooth model. We illustrate this with an example of a genus 2 hyperelliptic curve:

sage: R.<x>=GF(11)[]
sage: H = HyperellipticCurve(x*(x+1)*(x+2)*(x+3)*(x+4)*(x+5))
sage: H.points()
[(0 : 1 : 0), (0 : 0 : 1), (1 : 7 : 1), (1 : 4 : 1), (5 : 7 : 1), (5 : 4 : 1),
 (6 : 0 : 1), (7 : 0 : 1), (8 : 0 : 1), (9 : 0 : 1), (10 : 0 : 1)]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> R = GF(Integer(11))['x']; (x,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> H = HyperellipticCurve(x*(x+Integer(1))*(x+Integer(2))*(x+Integer(3))*(x+Integer(4))*(x+Integer(5)))
>>> H.points()
[(0 : 1 : 0), (0 : 0 : 1), (1 : 7 : 1), (1 : 4 : 1), (5 : 7 : 1), (5 : 4 : 1),
 (6 : 0 : 1), (7 : 0 : 1), (8 : 0 : 1), (9 : 0 : 1), (10 : 0 : 1)]

The plane model of the genus 2 hyperelliptic curve in the above example is the curve in \(\mathbb{P}^2\) defined by \(y^2z^4=g(x,z)\) where \(g(x,z)=x(x+z)(x+2z)(x+3z)(x+4z)(x+5z).\) This model has one point at infinity \((0:1:0)\) which is also the only singular point of the plane model. In contrast, the hyperelliptic curve is smooth and imbeds via the equation \(y^2=g(x,z)\) into weighted projected space \(\mathbb{P}(1,3,1)\). The latter model has two points at infinity: \((1:1:0)\) and \((1:-1:0)\).

A quadratic twist:

sage: R.<t> = PolynomialRing(GF(37))
sage: H = HyperellipticCurve(2*t^5 + 2*t + 4)
sage: H.zeta_function()
(1369*x^4 - 37*x^3 - 52*x^2 - x + 1)/(37*x^2 - 38*x + 1)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> R = PolynomialRing(GF(Integer(37)), names=('t',)); (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> H = HyperellipticCurve(Integer(2)*t**Integer(5) + Integer(2)*t + Integer(4))
>>> H.zeta_function()
(1369*x^4 - 37*x^3 - 52*x^2 - x + 1)/(37*x^2 - 38*x + 1)
