Constructive $p$-adic $CM$ for genus $2$ curves
Abstract:
Canonical lifts of elliptic curves have been used both for point counting (determining the zeta function) and for constructing $CM$ invariants. In genus $2$, Mestre introduced an algorithm for determining the zeta function of a curve using canonical lifts. In this talk I will describe an algorithm for determining $CM$ invariants in the moduli space of genus $2$ curves.
