    Let pp be a prime, and qq a power of pp. Using Galois theory, we show that over a field KK of characteristic zero, the endomorphism algebras of the jacobians of certain superelliptic curves yq=f(x)y^q=f(x) are products of cyclotomic fields.Comment: 11 page

    Supersingular abelian surfaces and Eichler class number formula

    Full text link
    Let FF be a totally real field with ring of integers OFO_F, and DD be a totally definite quaternion algebra over FF. A well-known formula established by Eichler and then extended by K\"orner computes the class number of any OFO_F-order in DD. In this paper we generalize the Eichler class number formula so that it works for arbitrary Z\mathbb{Z}-orders in DD. The motivation is to count the isomorphism classes of supersingular abelian surfaces in a simple isogeny class over a prime finite field Fp\mathbb{F}_p. We give explicit formulas for the number of these isomorphism classes for all primes pp.Comment: 29 pages, 3 numerical tables, shortened revised version with same results, Sections 7-9 of v2 are remove
