Supersingular curves are a special class of elliptic curves defined over a finite field, characterized by their unique properties in the context of the group law on elliptic curves. These curves have a singular point that plays a crucial role in their arithmetic properties, particularly in how they interact with the Frobenius endomorphism. Supersingular curves have applications in cryptography and coding theory due to their distinct features, such as non-ordinary behavior in their point counting.
