Abstract: Let $mathcalX$ be a projective, irreducible, nonsingular algebraic curve over the finite field $mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements and let $|mathcalX(mathbb{F}_q)|$ and $g(mathcalX)$ be its number of rational points and genus respectively. The Ihara constant $A(q)$ has been intensively studied during the last decades, and it is defined as the limit superior of $|mathcalX(mathbb{F}_q)|/g(mathcalX)$ as the genus of $mathcalX$ goes to infinity. In 2012 Homma defined an analogue $D(q)$ of $A(q)$, where the nonsingularity of $mathcalX$ is dropped and $g(mathcalX)$ is replaced with the degree of $mathcalX$. We will call $D(q)$ Homma's constant. In this paper, upper and lower bounds for the value of $D(q)$ are found.
