摘要
It is known that Drinfeld modular curves can be used to construct asymptotically optimal towers of curves over finite fields. Using reductions of the Drinfeld modular curves X-0(n), we try to find individual curves over finite fields with many rational points. The main idea is to divide by an Atkin-Lehner involution which has many fixed points in order to obtain a quotient with a better ratio #{rational points}/genus. In a few cases we can improve the known records of rational points. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science (USA).
