Abstract: $N$-point functions of holomorphic fields in conformal field theories can be calculated by methods from algebraic geometry. We establish explicit formulas for the 2-point function of the Virasoro field on hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces of genus $ggeq1$. Virasoro $N$-point functions for higher $N$ are obtained inductively, and we show that they have a nice graph representation. We discuss the 3-point function with application to the $(2,5)$ minimal model.
