Abstract

Let KK be a field of characteristic p2p \neq 2, and let f(x)f(x) be a sextic polynomial irreducible over KK with no repeated roots, whose Galois group is isomorphic to \A5\A_5. If the jacobian J(C)J(C) of the hyperelliptic curve C:y2=f(x)C:y^2=f(x) admits real multiplication over the ground field from an order of a real quadratic field DD, then either its endomorphism algebra is isomorphic to DD, or p>0p > 0 and J(C)J(C) is a supersingular abelian variety. The supersingular outcome cannot occur when pp splits in DD.
