Abstract

Let KK be a field of prime characteristic pp, n>4n>4 an integer, f(x)f(x) an irreducible polynomial over KK of degree nn, whose Galois group is either the full symmetric group SnS_n or the alternating group AnA_n. Let ll be an odd prime different from pp, Z[ζl]Z[\zeta_l] the ring of integers in the llth cyclotomic field, Cf,l:yl=f(x)C_{f,l}:y^l=f(x) the corresponding superelliptic curve and J(Cf,l)J(C_{f,l}) its jacobian. We prove that the ring of all endomorphisms of J(Cf,l)J(C_{f,l}) coincides with Z[ζl]Z[\zeta_l] if J(Cf,l)J(C_{f,l}) is an ordinary abelian variety and (l,n)(5,5)(l,n)\ne (5,5).
