Abstract

Let K be a global field of characteristic different from 2 and u(x) ∈ K[x] be an irreducible polynomial of even degree 2g ≥ 6 whose Galois group over K is either the full symmetric group (formula presented) or the alternating group A2g. We describe explicitly how to choose (infinitely many) pairs of distinct t1, t2∈ K such that the g-dimensional Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve y2= (x−t1)(x−t2))u(x) has no nontrivial endomorphisms over an algebraic closure of K and has big monodromy.
