Description

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0, and let X be a curve over K of genus g >= 2. Assume that p > 2 and that X admits a non-singular plane model. The following result is proven: if X has more than 3(2g(2) + g)(root 8g + 1 + 3) automorphisms, then X is birationally equivalent to a Hermitian curve. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
