FINITE FIELDS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS, cilt.42, ss.81-92, 2016 (SCI-Expanded)
In this work we present explicit classes of maximal and minimal Artin-Schreier type curves over finite fields having odd characteristics. Our results include the proof of Conjecture 5.9 given in [1] as a very special subcase. We use some techniques developed in [2], which were not used in [1]. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
