Abstract: Using an Euclidean approach, we prove a new upper bound for the number of closed points of degree 2 on a smooth absolutely irreducible projective algebraic curve defined over the finite field mathbbFq.This bound enables us to provide explicit conditions on q,g and pi for the non-existence of absolutely irreducible projective algebraic curves defined over mathbbFq of geometric genus g, arithmetic genus pi and with Nq(g)+pi−g rational points.Moreover, for q a square, we study the set of pairs (g,pi) for which there exists a maximal absolutely irreducible projective algebraic curve defined over mathbbFq of geometric genus g and arithmetic genus pi, i.e. with q+1+2gsqrtq+pi−g rational points.
