Abstract
We study the Jacobians of the genus 3 Picard and Fermat curves with respect to the problem of maximizing the minimum non-zero norm. We use criteria fo r symplectic lattices related to the criteria of perfect and eutactic for c lassical lattices. We show that the Picard curve is a local maximum, but th e Fermat curve is not.
