Abstract: We study arithmetic progression in the

x

-coordinate of rational points on genus two curves. As we know, there are two models for the curve

C

of genus two:

C : y^{2} = f_{5} (x)

or

C : y^{2} = f_{6} (x)

, where

f_{5}, f_{6} i n Q [x]

,

o p e r a t o r n a m e d e g f_{5} = 5, o p e r a t o r n a m e d e g f_{6} = 6

and the polynomials

f_{5}, f_{6}

do not have multiple roots. First we prove that there exists an infinite family of curves of the form

y^{2} = f (x)

, where

f i n Q [x]

and

o p e r a t o r n a m e d e g f = 5

each containing 11 points in arithmetic progression. We also present an example of

F i n Q [x]

with

o p e r a t o r n a m e d e g F = 5

such that on the curve

y^{2} = F (x)

twelve points lie in arithmetic progression. Next, we show that there exist infinitely many curves of the form

y^{2} = g (x)

where

g i n Q [x]

and

o p e r a t o r n a m e d e g g = 6

, each containing 16 points in arithmetic progression. Moreover, we present two examples of curves in this form with 18 points in arithmetic progression.
