Given a complete analytic function on a domain , define the germ of a function element of at . Let be the set of all germs of function elements in . Describe without proofs the topology and complex structure on and the natural covering map . Prove that the evaluation map defined by
is analytic on each component of .
Suppose is an analytic map of compact Riemann surfaces with the set of branch points. Show that is a regular covering map.
Given , explain how any closed curve in with initial and final points yields a permutation of the set . Show that the group obtained from all such closed curves is a transitive subgroup of the group of permutations of .
Find the group for the analytic map where .
