Abstract
We construct examples of families of curves of genus 2 or 3 over Q whose Jacobians split completely and have various large rational torsion subgroups. For example, the rational points on a certain elliptic surface over P^1 of positive rank parameterize a family of genus-2 curves over Q whose Jacobians each have 128 rational torsion points. Also, we find the genus-3 curve 15625(X^4 + Y^4 + Z^4) - 96914(X^2 Y^2 + X^2 Z^2 + Y^2 Z^2) = 0, whose Jacobian has 864 rational torsion points. This paper has appeared in Forum Math. 12 (2000) 315-364.

Complexity results for triangular sets

TL;DR: This work reduces to dimension zero by placing the free variables in the base field, so the solutions can be represented by triangular sets with coefficients in a rational function field, and gives intrinsic-type bounds on the degree of the coefficients in such a triangular set.
