    Let \(C\) be a smooth projective curve of genus \(g\geq 3\), and let \(J(C)\) be its Jacobian variety. Choosing a base point, one can embed \(C\) into \(J(C)\), and define \(W_k\) to be the natural image of the \(k\)-th symmetric product of \(C\). \textit{G. Ceresa} [Ann. Math. (2) 117, 285--291 (1983; Zbl 0538.14024)] showed that \(W_k-W_k^-\) is not algebraically trivial when \(C\) is generic and \(1\leq k\leq g-2\). In this article the author focuses on the Fermat curve of degree \(N\geq 4\) and gives a criterion for the non-vanishing of \(W_k-W_k^-\) modulo algebraic equivalence in terms of special values of generalized hypergeometric functions.
