Publication date 14 May 2000

Drinfel'd modules; higher-dimensional motives, etc. (11G09) Applications to coding theory and cryptography of arithmetic geometry (14G50) Geometric methods (including applications of algebraic geometry) applied to coding theory (94B27) Arithmetic aspects of modular and Shimura varieties (11G18)

Abstract: We give explicit equations for the simplest towers of Drinfeld modular curves over any finite field, and observe that they coincide with the asymptotically optimal towers of curves constructed by Garcia and Stichtenoth.
