Jacobians $\mathbb{F}_q$-isogenous to the direct square of an ordinary elliptic $\mathbb{F}_q$-curve of $j$-invariant $0$
Consider an ordinary elliptic curve $E_b\!: y^2 = x^3 + b$, of $j$-invariant $0$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, such that $\sqrt{b} \not\in \mathbb{F}_q$.

Is a supersingular Kummer surface $k$-unirational in characteristic 2?
Let $k$ be a perfect field of even characteristic. Consider the simplest example of a supersingular genus 2 curve, i.e.,
$$
C\!: y^2 + y = x^5.
$$

quasi-trigonal curves
I have read in the literature about quasi-trigonal curves. Such a curve C is a hyperelliptic curve X with two points p,q identified (basically a pinch). They seem to be pretty important in the theory ...
