Abstract
The defect of a curve over a finite field is the difference between the number of rational points on the curve and the Weil-Serre upper bound for the number of points on the curve. We present algorithms for constructing curves of genus 5, 6, and 7 with small defect. Our aim is to be able to produce, in a reasonable amount of time, curves that can be used to populate the online table of curves with many points found at http://www.manypoints.org.
