Hyperelliptic curves with reduced automorphism group A5

We study genus $g$ hyperelliptic curves with reduced automorphism group $A_5$ and give equations $y^2=f(x)$ for such curves in both cases where $f(x)$ is a decomposable polynomial in $x^2$ or $x^5$. For any fixed genus the locus of such curves is a rational variety. We show that for every point in this locus the field of moduli is a field of definition. Moreover, there exists a rational model $y^2=F(x)$ or $y^2=xF(x)$ of the curve over its field of moduli where $F(x)$ can be chosen to be decomposable in $x^2$ or $x^5$. While similar equations have been given in Bujalance, Cirre, Gamboa and Gromadzki (2001) over $\mathbb{R}$, this is the first time that these equations are given over the field of moduli of the curve.
