Counting points of homogeneous varieties over finite fields

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let X be an algebraic variety over a finite field , homogeneous under a linear algebraic group. We show that the number of rational points of X over is a periodic polynomial function of qn with integer coefficients. Moreover, the shifted periodic polynomial function, where qn is formally replaced with qn+1, is shown to have non-negative coefficients.
