Frobenius n-homomorphisms, transfers and branched coverings
نویسنده
چکیده
The main purpose is to characterise continuous maps that are n-branched coverings in terms of induced maps on the rings of functions. The special properties of Frobenius nhomomorphisms between two function spaces that correspond to n-branched coverings are determined completely. Several equivalent definitions of a Frobenius n-homomorphism are compared and some of their properties are proved. An axiomatic treatment of n-transfers is given in general and properties of n-branched coverings are studied and compared with those of regular coverings.

متن کاملFuchsian groups, coverings of Riemann surfaces, subgroup growth, random quotients and random walks
Fuchsian groups (acting as isometries of the hyperbolic plane) occur naturally in geometry, combinatorial group theory, and other contexts. We use character-theoretic and probabilistic methods to study the spaces of homomorphisms from Fuchsian groups to symmetric groups. We obtain a wide variety of applications, ranging from counting branched coverings of Riemann surfaces, to subgroup growth an...
متن کاملOn the isomonodromic tau-function for the Hurwitz spaces of branched coverings of genus zero and one
The isomonodromic tau-function for the Hurwitz spaces of branched coverings of genus zero and one are constructed explicitly. Such spaces may be equipped with the structure of a Frobenius manifold and this introduces a flat coordinate system on the manifold. The isomonodromic taufunction, and in particular the associated G-function, are rewritten in these coordinates and an interpretation in te...
متن کاملBranched coverings of maps and lifts of map homomorphisms
In this article we generalize both ordinary and permutation voltage constructions to obtain all branched coverings of maps. We approach a map as a set of flags together with three fixed-point-free involutions and relate this approach with other standard representations. We define a lift as a function from these flags into a group. Ordinary voltage and ordinary current assignments are special ca...
متن کاملStrongly-cyclic branched coverings of (1,1)-knots and cyclic presentations of groups
We study the connections among the mapping class group of the twice punctured torus, the cyclic branched coverings of (1, 1)-knots and the cyclic presentations of groups. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the n-fold stronglycyclic branched coverings of (1, 1)-knots, through the elements of the mapping class group. We prove that every n-fold stro...
