Explicit bases of the Riemann-Roch spaces on divisors on hyperelliptic curves

Abstract

For an (imaginary) hyperelliptic curve H\mathcal{H} of genus gg, we determine a basis of the Riemann-Roch space L(D)\mathcal{L}(D), where DD is a divisor with positive degree nn, linearly equivalent to P1++Pj+(nj)ΩP_1+\cdots+ P_j+(n-j)\Omega, with 0jg0 \le j \le g, where Ω\Omega is a Weierstrass point, taken as the point at infinity. As an application, we determine a generator matrix of a Goppa code for j=g=3j=g=3 and n=4.n=4.
