Abstract

We describe a qualitative improvement to the algorithms for performing [Formula: see text]-descents to obtain information regarding the Mordell–Weil rank of a hyperelliptic Jacobian. The improvement has been implemented in the Magma Computational Algebra System and as a result, the rank bounds for hyperelliptic Jacobians are now sharper and have the conjectured parity.
