Transporting filled covers along isomorphisms of covers #
Let h : E ≃ₜ F be an isomorphism of covers of ℂ ∖ {0, 1}, a homeomorphism with p' ∘ h = p.
It transports the added points of the filled cover of p to those of p' by its bijection
FilledPoint.congr h hh on the components over the three punctures, preserving the local degree
at each added point (TauCeti.FilledCover.degree_congr). The local-degree comparison needs
neither finiteness nor the covering property.
When p is a covering map with finite fibres, h extends to a homeomorphism of filled covers
TauCeti.FilledCover.congr, which is h on E and is the transport of added points on the
added points, and which commutes with the extended projections to the Riemann sphere
(TauCeti.FilledCover.fillMap_congr_apply). The extension exists because the end of a filling
chart is intrinsic to the cover (TauCeti.FilledCover.map_chart_comap_nhds_zero): it is the
filter of points of the component going to infinity in ℂ ∖ {0, 1}, which h carries to the
corresponding filter for p'. Thus the filled cover is functorial in isomorphisms of covers:
the extension respects identities and composition (TauCeti.FilledCover.congr_refl,
TauCeti.FilledCover.congr_trans).

Isomorphic covers have the same local degree at corresponding added points.
An isomorphism of covers carries components onto components. The image under h of the
component of p ⁻¹' D_q* giving the added point i is the component of p' ⁻¹' D_q* giving the
transported added point.
Functoriality of the filled cover in isomorphisms of covers. An isomorphism h : E ≃ₜ F
over ℂ ∖ {0, 1} from a covering map p with finite fibres to p' extends to a homeomorphism
of their filled covers. It is h on E (TauCeti.FilledCover.congr_apply_incl), sends the added
point of a component to the added point of its image component
(TauCeti.FilledCover.congr_apply_center), and commutes with the extended projections to the
Riemann sphere (TauCeti.FilledCover.fillMap_congr_apply).
Instances For
The extended homeomorphism lies over the Riemann sphere: it commutes with the extended
projections fillMap p and fillMap p'.
The identity isomorphism of covers extends to the identity of the filled cover.
The extension of a composite of isomorphisms of covers is the composite of the extensions.
