Abstract

In this paper we generalize results of P. Le Duff to genus n hyperelliptic curves. More precisely, let C=Q be a hyperelliptic genus n curve, let J.C/ be the associated Jacobian variety, and let N` W GQ ! GSp.J.C/OE`/ be the Galois representation attached to the `-torsion of J.C/. Assume that there exists a prime p such that J.C/ has semistable reduction with toric dimension 1 at p. We provide an algorithm to compute a list of primes ` (if they exist) such that N` is surjective. In particular we realize GSp6.F`/ as a Galois group over Q for all primes ` 2 OE11; 500;000.
