Rational points on algebraic curves over finite fields is a key topic for algebraic geometers and coding theorists. Here, the authors relate an important application of such curves, namely, to the construction of low-discrepancy sequences, needed for numerical methods in diverse areas. They sum up the theoretical work on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points and discuss the applications of such curves to algebraic coding theory and the construction of low-discrepancy sequences.

This book has two main aims. Firstly, to give a summary of the theoretical work in algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points. Secondly to discuss the applications of this theory to areas such as information theory (algebraic coding theory) and computational mathematics (construction of low-discrepancy sequences). The bulk of the material in this book is of very recent origin. The authors have given the first systematic treatment of this material in this book.
'... the book under review develops many techniques that are not covered in the existing texts. I highly recommend it.' Steven D. Galbraith, Royal Holloway, University of London
'Because of the carefully selected contents and lucid style, the book can be warmly recommended to mathematicians interested in the above-mentioned topics or in algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points.' EMS
'The book is very clearly written. It is warmly recommended to anyone who is interested in nice mathematical theories and/or in the recent applications.' Acta. Sci. Math.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ever since the seminal work of Goppa on algebraic-geometry codes, rational points on algebraic curves over finite fields have been an important research topic for algebraic geometers and coding theorists. The focus in this application of algebraic geometry to coding theory is on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points (relative to the genus). Recently, the authors discovered another important application of such curves, namely to the construction of low-discrepancy sequences. These sequences are needed for numerical methods in areas as diverse as computational physics and mathematical finance. This has given additional impetus to the theory of, and the search for, algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points. This book aims to sum up the theoretical work on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points and to discuss the applications of such curves to algebraic coding theory and the construction of low-discrepancy sequences. Rational points on algebraic curves over finite fields is a key topic for algebraic geometers and coding theorists. Here, the authors relate an important application of such curves, namely, to the construction of low-discrepancy sequences, needed for numerical methods in diverse areas. They sum up the theoretical work on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points and discuss the applications of such curves to algebraic coding theory and the construction of low-discrepancy sequences.
