Abstract
Let be a field of characteristic , and let , , ..., be algebraically independent and transcendental over . Let be the transcendental extension of obtained by adjoining the elementary symmetric functions of the 's. Let be the Jacobian of the hyperelliptic curve defined over which is given by the equation . We define a tower of field extensions by giving recursive formulas for the generators of each over , and let . We show that is the subextension of the field corresponding to a central order- Galois subgroup of , and a generator of over is given.
