Results to get Maximal Quasihermitian Curves. New possibilities for AG Codes

  • Chapter
Information, Coding and Mathematics

Abstract

For Quasihermitian curves defined over F 2, with genus g ≥ 1, we present sufficient conditions for getting maximal curves on \({F_{{2^{{2_g}}}}}\). This shows a way to obtain good AG Codes from this class of curves.

R..J. McEliece’s contribution to this paper was supported by NSF grant no. CCR9804793, and grants from the Sony Corp., Qualcomm, Caltech’s Lee Center for Advanced Networking.

M.C. Rodríguez-Palánquex was supported by DGICYT (“Dirección General de Investigación del Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología”) under grant TIC2000-0735. During this work M.C. Rodríguez-Palánquex was with the Department of Electrical Engineering at California Institute of Technology. This author would like to express her appreciation to the “Programa Complutense del Amo” (Universidad Complutense de Madrid), for providing her a grant for this stay.
