Generic automorphism conjecture for hyperelliptic curves of 2-rank zero

From papers

Let CC be a generic hyperelliptic curve of genus gg and 22-rank 00 over a field of characteristic 22. Generic automorphism conjecture for 2-rank-zero hyperelliptic curves. If g>2g>2, then

Aut(C)={±1}.\operatorname{Aut}(C)=\{\pm 1\}.

The paper verifies the assertion for 2<g62<g\leq 6 using its computed group structures, while the statement remains conjectural for larger genus.
