Universal tessellations.

David Singerman — 1988

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

All maps of type (m,n) are covered by a universal map M(m,n) which lies on one of the three simply connected Riemann surfaces; in fact M(m,n) covers all maps of type (r,s) where r|m and s|n. In this paper we construct a tessellation M which is universal for all maps on all surfaces. We also consider the tessellation M(8,3) which covers all triangular maps. This coincides with the well-known Farey tessellation and we find many connections between M(8,3) and M.

Non-maximal cyclic group actions on compact Riemann surfaces.

David SingermanPaul Watson — 1997

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We say that a finite group G of automorphisms of a Riemann surface X is non-maximal in genus g if (i) G acts as a group of automorphisms of some compact Riemann surface Xg of genus g and (ii), for all such surfaces Xg , |Aut Xg| > |G|. In this paper we investigate the case where G is a cyclic group Cn of order n. If Cn acts on only finitely many surfaces of genus g, then we completely solve the problem of finding all such pairs (n,g).
