Regulators on some abelian coverings of $\mathbb{P}^1$ minus $n+2$ points

In this paper, we construct certain rational or integral elements in the motivic cohomology of superelliptic curves which are quotient curves of abelian coverings of $\mathbb{P}^1$ minus $n+2$ points, and prove that these elements are non-trivial by expressing their regulators in terms of Appell-Lauricella hypergeometric functions. We also check that such elements are integral under a mild assumption. We also give various numerical examples for the Beilinson conjecture on special values of $L$-functions of the superelliptic curves by using hypergeometric expressions.
