(a) Prove that zz4z \mapsto z^{4} as a map from the upper half-plane H\mathbb{H} to C\{0}\mathbb{C} \backslash\{0\} is a covering map which is not regular.

(b) Determine the set of singular points on the unit circle for

h(z)=n=0(1)n(2n+1)znh(z)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(-1)^{n}(2 n+1) z^{n}

(c) Suppose f:Δ\{0}Δ\{0}f: \Delta \backslash\{0\} \rightarrow \Delta \backslash\{0\} is a holomorphic map where Δ\Delta is the unit disk. Prove that ff extends to a holomorphic map f~:ΔΔ\tilde{f}: \Delta \rightarrow \Delta. If additionally ff is biholomorphic, prove that f~(0)=0\tilde{f}(0)=0.

(d) Suppose that g:CRg: \mathbb{C} \hookrightarrow R is a holomorphic injection with RR a compact Riemann surface. Prove that RR has genus 0 , stating carefully any theorems you use.
