Abstract

We present an algorithm for computing the zeta function of an arbitrary hyperelliptic curve over a finite field $\FF_q$ of characteristic 2, thereby extending the algorithm of Kedlaya for small odd characteristic. For a genus $g$ hyperelliptic curve over $\FF_2^n$, the asymptotic running time of the algorithm is $O(g^5 + arepsilon n^3 + arepsilon)$ and the space complexity is $O(g^4 n^3)$.
