%0 Journal Article %T Gaussian point count statistics for families of curves over a fixed finite field %A Par Kurlberg %A Igor Wigman %J Mathematics %D 2010 %I arXiv %X We produce a collection of families of curves, whose point count statistics over F_p becomes Gaussian for p fixed. In particular, the average number of F_p points on curves in these families tends to infinity. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1003.2223v3
