Abstract

In this article, we study some cyclic (r,s)(r,s) curves XX given by yr=xs+λ1xs1+...+λs1x+λsy^r =x^s + \lambda_{1} x^{s-1} +...+ \lambda_{s-1} x + \lambda_s. We give an expression for the prime form \cE(P,Q)\cE(P,Q), where (P,QX)(P, Q \in X), in terms of the sigma function for some such curves, specifically any hyperelliptic curve (r,s)=(2,2g+1)(r,s) = (2, 2g+1) as well as the cyclic trigonal curve (r,s)=(3,4)(r,s) = (3,4), \cE(P,Q)=σr(uv)du1dv1, \cE(P,Q) =\frac{\sigma_{\natural_{r}}(u - v)}{\sqrt{du_1}\sqrt{d v_1}}, where r\natural_r is a certain index of differentials. Here u1u_1 and v1v_1 are respectively the first components of u=w(P)u = w(P) and v=w(Q)v = w(Q) which are given by the Abel map w:X\CCgw: X \to \CC^g, where gg is the genus of XX.
