Conductor of hyperelliptic curve after adding a rational root

Let $r\geq 5$ be a prime. Suppose I have a specified hyperelliptic curve $C: y^2=f(x)$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, where $f\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$ has degree $r$. Note: the roots of $f$ are not rational but ...

Scalar multiplication via the Kummer surface of a genus $2$ curve by $\sqrt{5}$

I hope this is a good question. Recently I worked with genus two curves $H$ that have multiplication by $[\zeta_5]\in \text{Aut}(H)$, that is, multiplication by $e^{2\pi i/5}$. This automorphism is ...
