Jacobians in isogeny classes of abelian surfaces over finite fields. (English) Zbl 1236.11058

This well written paper provides a complete classification as to which quartic polynomials occur as the characteristic polynomial of Frobenius on the Jacobian of a genus 2 curve over a finite field. This builds on earlier work of several authors. The main cases handled in this paper are split isogeny classes and supersingular isogeny classes.
