Abstract
We discuss the theory of generalized Weierstrass s and P-functions defined on a trigonal curve of genus 4, following earlier work on the genus 3 case. The specific example of the "purely trigonal" (or "cyclic trigonal") curve y3 = x5 + ?4 x4 + ?3 x3 + ?2 x2 + ?1 x + ?0 is discussed in detail, including a list of some of the associated partial differential equations satisfied by the P-functions, and the derivation of addition formulae. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
