We give an explicit description of the stable reduction of superelliptic curves of the form $y^n=f(x)$ at primes $p$ whose residue characteristic is prime to the exponent $n$. We then use this description to compute the local $L$-factor of the curve and the exponent of conductor at $p$.

We discuss the computation of coefficients of the L-series associated to a hyperelliptic curve over Q of genus at most 3, using point counting, generic group algorithms, and p-adic methods.
In this paper we study the Coleman-Oort conjecture for superelliptic curves, i.e., curves defined by affine equations $y^n=F(x)$ with $F$ a separable polynomial. We prove that up to isomorphism there are at most finitely many superelliptic curves of fixed genus $ggeq 8$ with CM Jacobians. The proof relies on the geometric structures of Shimura subvarieties in Siegel modular varieties and the stability properties of Higgs bundles associated to fibred surfaces.
Let $p$ be a prime, let $r$ and $q$ be powers of $p$, and let $a$ and $b$ be relatively prime integers not divisible by $p$. Let $C/mathbb F_{r}(t)$ be the superelliptic curve with affine equation $y^b+x^a=t^q-t$. Let $J$ be the Jacobian of $C$. By work of Pries--Ulmer, $J$ satisfies the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture (BSD). Generalizing work of Griffon--Ulmer, we compute the $L$-function of $J$ in terms of certain Gauss sums. In addition, we estimate several arithmetic invariants of $J$ appearing in BSD, including the rank of the Mordell--Weil group $J(mathbb F_{r}(t))$, the Faltings height of $J$, and the Tamagawa numbers of $J$ in terms of the parameters $a,b,q$. For any $p$ and $r$, we show that for certain $a$ and $b$ depending only on $p$ and $r$, these Jacobians provide new examples of families of simple abelian varieties of fixed dimension and with unbounded analytic and algebraic rank as $q$ varies through powers of $p$. Under a different set of criteria on $a$ and $b$, we prove that the order of the Tate--Shafarevich group of $J$ grows quasilinearly in $q$ as $q to infty.$
Let $K$ be a local field and $f(x)in K[x]$ be a non-constant polynomial. The local zeta function $Z_f(s, chi)$ was first introduced by Weil, then studied in detail by Igusa. When ${rm char}(K)=0$, Igusa proved that $Z_f(s, chi)$ is a rational function of $q^{-s}$ by using the resolution of singularities. Later on, Denef gave another proof of this remarkable result. However, if ${rm char}(K)>0$, the question of rationality of $Z_f(s, chi)$ is still kept open. Actually, there are only a few known results so far. In this paper, we investigate the local zeta functions of two-variable polynomial $g(x, y)$, where $g(x, y)=0$ is the superelliptic curve with coefficients in a non-archimedean local field of positive characteristic. By using the notable Igusas stationary phase formula and with the help of some results due to Denef and Z${rm acute{u}}$${rmtilde{n}}$iga-Galindo, and developing a detailed analysis, we prove the rationality of these local zeta functions and also describe explicitly all their candidate poles.
We describe the practical implementation of an average polynomial-time algorithm for counting points on superelliptic curves defined over $mathbb Q$ that is substantially faster than previous approaches. Our algorithm takes as input a superelliptic curves $y^m=f(x)$ with $mge 2$ and $fin mathbb Z[x]$ any squarefree polynomial of degree $dge 3$, along with a positive integer $N$. It can compute $#X(mathbb F_p)$ for all $ple N$ not dividing $mmathrm{lc}(f)mathrm{disc}(f)$ in time $O(md^3 Nlog^3 Nloglog N)$. It achieves this by computing the trace of the Cartier--Manin matrix of reductions of $X$. We can also compute the Cartier--Manin matrix itself, which determines the $p$-rank of the Jacobian of $X$ and the numerator of its zeta function modulo~$p$.
