In this paper, we study the Cassels-Tate pairing on Jacobians of genus two curves admitting a special type of isogenies called Richelot isogenies. Let $\phi: J \rightarrow \widehat{J}$ be a Richelot isogeny between two Jacobians of genus two curves. We give an explicit formula as well as a practical algorithm to compute the Cassels-Tate pairing on $\text{Sel}^{\widehat{\phi}}(\widehat{J}) \times \text{Sel}^{\widehat{\phi}}(\widehat{J})$ where $\widehat{\phi}$ is the dual isogeny of $\phi$. The formula and algorithm are under the simplifying assumption that all two torsion points on $J$ are defined over $K$. We also include a worked example demonstrating we can turn the descent by Richelot isogeny into a 2-descent via computing the Cassels-Tate pairing. |
