We propose an explicit $L$-polynomial of hyperelliptic function field $K:=F_q(T, sqrt[ell]T^2+aT+b)$ with $a, b in F_q$ and $a^2-4b ne 0$. Using our formula, we obtain the explicit closed formula for the class number of $K$, where $m$ is even or $m=fracell-12$.As an application, we compute the average class numbers for hyperelliptic function fields with genus up to $3$.| Search Query: arXiv Query: search_query=au:Cho OR all:Hsiao-Mei&id_list=&start=0&max_results=3Read More
