Does the cardinality of coordinate projections of the rational points of affine varieties over finite fields also tend to $\infty$?
We know (basically by Lang-Weil) that for an absolutely irreducible n-dimensional affine variety $V$ the cardinality $\#V(F_{l})$ tends to $\infty$ for $l$ large enough. We could now look at the set ...

A functor on Abelian varieties corresponding to this operation on Weil numbers
Let $A/\mathbb F_q$ be an abelian variety over a finite field with Weil numbers $q^{1/2}\alpha_1,\dots,q^{1/2}\alpha_n$.
Consider the numbers $q^{d/2}\alpha_1,\dots,q^{d/2}\alpha_n$. These are still ...

On the sheaves-functions dictionary
Let $X$ be a variety over a finite field $k$. Let $\pi_{1}(X)$ be the arithmetic etale fundamental group of $X$, and $\rho:\pi_{1}(X)\to k^{\times}$ a continuous character. If $x: \text{Spec}(k)\to X$ ...

Why we are interested in p>3 Schoof's algorithm
In the Schoof's algorithm we are particularly interested in $char(K)>3$, where $K$ is the field. I know Schoof's algorithm is mostly used over large prime fields. Also, when we are transforming ...

the least point on a variety over a finite field
Let $p$ be a large prime parameter and $V\subseteq \mathbb{P}^n_{\mathbb{F}_p}$ a variety defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ with bounded degree and dimension (w.r.t. $p$). Assume that $V$ ...

Points on the intersection of an affine quadric and cubic over a finite field
Are there absolute constants $N$ and $B$ such that the following is true?
Let $p>B$ be a prime. Let $q(x_0,\dotsc,x_n)$ and $c(x_0,\dotsc,x_n)$ be homogeneous of degree $2$ and $3$ with ...
