%N "Special" prime powers in Serre's sense.
%C See Hirschfeld, pp. 49-50 for precise definition.
%C By a theorem of Hasse-Weil and Serre, every (absolutely irreducible, smooth) genus 2 curve over GF(q) has cardinality at most q + 1 + 2*floor(2*sqrt(q)). This sequence consists exactly of the prime powers q (excluding 4 and 9) for which there does not exist any genus 2 curve over GF(q) with cardinality equal to q + 1 + 2*floor(2*sqrt(q)). - _Robin Visser_, Aug 26 2023
