Pullback of divisors on Riemann surfaces #
A finite holomorphic map f : X → Y pulls a divisor on Y back to X by multiplying the
coefficient at f x by the local multiplicity of f at x. The resulting function on X has
finite support because f has finite fibres. This file packages the construction as the additive

Pullback is contravariantly functorial. On a point divisor it is the sum of the points in the fibre, weighted by their local multiplicities, and therefore its divisor degree is the analytic degree of the map. More generally, pullback multiplies divisor degree by the degree of the finite holomorphic map. These formulas are the divisor-theoretic form of counting a fibre with multiplicity and are used to construct ramification divisors.
