 Torsion trivialization in a determinant quotient

Evaluation determinants for $L\otimes P$ and $L$ have a quotient which is a rational section of ${⨂}_i{\mathrm{pr}}_i^{\ast }P$, not intrinsically a scalar. If $P^N\cong {\mathcal{O}}_C$, its $N$th power becomes a rational function after choosing that trivialization. In Cartier divisor notation, write $P={\mathcal{O}}_C(p)$ and $\mathrm{div}(h)=Np$. With raw meromorphic evaluations the scalar expression is $r^N{\prod }_{i}h(z_i)$. The extra product accounts for the line-bundle frames; it is suppressed when evaluation already uses compatible torsion trivializations.
