\textit{P. Diaconis} and \textit{I. M. Isaacs} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 360, No. 5, 2359--2392 (2008; Zbl 1137.20008)] introduced the concept of supercharacters, building upon the work of \textit{C. A. M. André} [J. Algebra 241, No. 1, 437--471 (2001; Zbl 1013.20037)] on the representation theory of unipotent matrix groups over finite fields, as generalization of basic characters. The authors use a supercharacter theory of \(\mathbb{F}^2_p\) to express the eighth power moment of Kloosterman sum in terms of traces of Frobenius endomorphism of certain families of elliptic curves.
