We study algebras and divisors on a normal affine hypersurface defined by an equation of the form . The coordinate ring is , and if and , then is a cyclic Galois extension of . We show that if the Galois group is , the natural map factors through the relative Brauer group and that all of the maps are onto. Sufficient conditions are given for to be isomorphic to . As an example, all of the groups, maps, divisors and algebras are computed for an affine surface defined by an equation of the form .
