Let $K$ be a field equipped with a non-Archimedean absolute value, let $\Gamma$ be a Schottky group in $PGL_2(K)$, and let $X_\Gamma$ be the associated Mumford curve, which is a proper smooth rigid analytic space over $K$, but also a proper algebraic curve (due to Mumford's theorem). Let $J_\Gamma$ be the Jacobian variety of degree 0 divisors on $X_\Gamma$, and let $a: X_\Gamma \to J_\Gamma$ be the Abel-Jacobi map which sends a point $x$ to the class of the divisor $[x-x_0]$ for some $x_0 \in X_\Gamma$ fixed in advance.

It is known that $J_\Gamma$ admits a uniformisation as the quotient $\mathbb{G}_m^g/\Gamma'$ where $\Gamma'$ is the abelianisation $\Gamma/[\Gamma,\Gamma]$ of the group $\Gamma$, and $g$ is the genus of $X_\Gamma$.

Is there a way to describe the Abel-Jacobi map $a$ in analytic terms, similarly to the description of this map over $\mathbb{C}$ in terms of Abelian integrals?

This is done in Manin and Drinfeld's "Periods of p-adic Schottky groups." Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik 0262_0263 (1973): 239-247. You will also find it in Gerritzen and van der Put's book on Mumford curves.

You can also find an interpretation using integrals, this time multiplicative, and mesures, in the preprint "The Abel Jacobi map for Mumford Curves via Integration": https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.09285 which generalizes the construction given by Darmon and Longhi in the local case.
