Abstract

Let J be the Jacobian of a smooth projective complex curve C which admits non-trivial automorphisms, and let \(\mathrm{{A}}(J)\) be the ring of algebraic cycles on J with rational coefficients modulo algebraic equivalence. We present new tautological rings in \(\mathrm{{A}}(J)\) which extend in a natural way the tautological ring studied by Beauville (Compos Math 140(3):683–688, 2004). We then show there exist tautological rings induced on special complementary abelian subvarieties of J.
