Abstract

Denote ΘC as the Frobenius class of a curve C over the finite field 𝔽q. In this paper we determine the expected value of Tr(ΘCn) where C runs over all biquadratic curves when q is fixed and g tends to infinity. This extends work done by Rudnick [15] and Chinis [5] who separately looked at hyperelliptic curves and Bucur, Costa, David, Guerreiro and Lowry-Duda [1] who looked at ℓ-cyclic curves, for ℓ a prime, as well as cubic non-Galois curves.
