The main goal of this paper is to analyze the properties of lifts of hyperelliptic curves y 0 = f(x0) over perfect fields of characteristic p > 2 (to hyperelliptic curves over the ring of Witt vectors) that have lifts of points whose coordinate functions have minimal degrees. It is shown that, when trying to minimize the degrees of the x-coordinate, the (n+ 1)-th entry, say Fn, can be taken to be a polynomial in x0 such that (dp n− (d−2))/2 ≤ degFn ≤ (dp +(d−2))/2, where d = deg f(x0). Besides upper and lower bounds for the degrees, other topics discussed include a necessary condition to achieve the lower bounds and lifting the Frobenius. Computational aspects are also considered and the case of elliptic curves is analyzed in more detail. An explicit formula for derivatives of coordinate functions of the elliptic Teichmuller lift is proved, namely dFn/dx0 = 0, if p = 2, and dFn/dx0 = A (p−1)/(p−1) y −1 0 − ∑n−1 i=0 F (pn−i−1) i dFi/dx0, if p ≥ 3, where A is the Hasse invariant of the curve. Finally, we establish a connection between minimal degree liftings and Mochizuki’s theory of “canonical liftings” in the case of genus 2 curves.
