A maximal function field of genus $17$ over $\mathbb{F}_{11^2}$
Abstract
In this article, we describe a new maximal function field $G$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{11^2}$ with $11^2$ elements and show that it cannot be obtained as a subfield of the Hermitian function field. This provides the first known $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$-maximal function field that satisfies this property. Further, we compute the automorphism group of $G$. The new maximal function field was found using AI.
