The group-theoretic Torelli conjecture for curves over finite fields

Let k=Fpk=\overline{\mathbb F}_p with p3p\geq 3, and let CC and C~\tilde{C} be smooth projective curves over kk of genus at least 22, with Jacobians JJ and J~\tilde{J}. Suppose that (C,J)(C,J) and (C~,J~)(\tilde{C},\tilde{J}) are related by an isomorphism of pairs as in Theorem~. The group-theoretic Torelli conjecture. Under the assumptions of Theorem~, CC and C~\tilde{C} are isomorphic as algebraic varieties, modulo Frobenius twisting. The theorem in the surrounding text proves only that JJ and J~\tilde{J} are isogenous; the asserted recovery of the curve itself is a stronger Torelli-type statement, and its resolution is not specified here.
