Surjectivity of Galois representations in rational families of abelian varieties

Vol. 13 (2019), No. 5, 995–1038
Abstract

In this article, we show that for any nonisotrivial family of abelian varieties over a rational base with big monodromy, those members that have adelic Galois representation with image as large as possible form a density-1 subset. Our results can be applied to a number of interesting families of abelian varieties, such as rational families dominating the moduli of Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves, trigonal curves, or plane curves. As a consequence, we prove that for any dimension g 3, there are infinitely many abelian varieties over with adelic Galois representation having image equal to all of GSp2g( ̂).
