| Résumé : |
Let F_q be the finite field of order q. We use a simple characterization of exceptional covers (of projective nonsingular curves) over F_q: A cover maps one-one on F_{q^t} points for infty-ly many t. Lenstra suggested there may be an Exceptional (cover) Tower. We construct and use it to organize progress and unsolved
problems on genus 0 exceptional covers. |
