  1. Abstract We complete the computation of all$$\mathbb {Q}$$ Q -rational points on all the 64 maximal Atkin-Lehner quotients$$X_0(N)^*$$ X 0 ( N ) such that the quotient is hyperelliptic. To achieve this, we use a combination of various methods, namely the classical Chabauty–Coleman, elliptic curve Chabauty, quadratic Chabauty, and the bielliptic quadratic Chabauty method (from a forthcoming preprint of the fourth-named author) combined with the Mordell-Weil sieve. Additionally, for square-free levelsN, we classify all$$\mathbb {Q}$$ Q -rational points as cusps, CM points (including their CM field andj-invariants) and exceptional ones. We further indicate how to use this to compute the$$\mathbb {Q}$$ Q -rational points on all of their modular coverings.

  2. Let  ρ ¯ : G Q → GSp 4 ⁡ ( F 3 ) \overline {\rho }: G_{\mathbf {Q}} \rightarrow \operatorname {GSp}_4(\mathbf {F}_3) be a continuous Galois representation with cyclotomic similitude character. Equivalently, consider ρ ¯ \overline {\rho } to be the Galois representation associated to the  3 3 -torsion of a principally polarized abelian surface  A / Q A/\mathbf {Q} . We prove that the moduli space  A 2 ( ρ ¯ ) \mathcal {A}_2(\overline {\rho }) of principally polarized abelian surfaces  B / Q B/\mathbf {Q} admitting a symplectic isomorphism  B [ 3 ] ≃ ρ ¯ B[3] \simeq \overline {\rho } of Galois representations is never rational over  Q \mathbf {Q} when  ρ ¯ \overline {\rho } is surjective, even though it is both rational over  C \mathbf {C} and unirational over  Q \mathbf {Q} via a map of degree  6 6 .
