Question

Transcribed Image Text:Context: The Riemann-Hurwitz formula is a fundamental result in algebraic geometry and the theory
of Riemann surfaces. It relates the genera of two Riemann surfaces connected by a holomorphic
map, taking into account the ramification of the map.
Problem Statement:
Let f CD be a non-constant holomorphic (branched covering) map between compact,
connected Riemann surfaces C and D. Suppose f has degree d, and let go and gD denote the
genera of C and D, respectively.
Tasks:
1. Definitions and Preliminary Concepts:
a. Genus of a Riemann Surface:
Define the genus g of a compact Riemann surface.
Explain its topological significance in terms of the surface's connectivity and "holes."
b. Holomorphic Maps and Degree:
Define what it means for a map f : C→ D between Riemann surfaces to be holomorphic.
Explain the concept of the degree d of the map f.
c. Ramification Points and Indices:
Define ramification points of f and ramification indices.
Explain the ramification divisor associated with f.
