We decompose the Jacobian varieties of hyperelliptic curves up to genus
, defined
over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, with reduced automorphism
group
,
, or
. Among these curves is a
genus- curve with Jacobian
variety isogenous to
and a
genus- curve with Jacobian
variety isogenous to
,
for
and
elliptic curves. These types of results have some interesting consequences for
questions of ranks of elliptic curves and ranks of their twists.
