Representing open 3-manifolds as 3-fold branched coverings.

José María Montesinos-Amilibia (2002)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

It is proved that the Freudenthal compactification of an open, connected, oriented 3-manifold is a 3-fold branched covering of S, and in some cases, a 2-fold branched covering of S. The branching set is a locally finite disjoint union of strings.

Covering maps for locally path-connected spaces

N. Brodskiy, J. Dydak, B. Labuz, A. Mitra (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We define Peano covering maps and prove basic properties analogous to classical covers. Their domain is always locally path-connected but the range may be an arbitrary topological space. One of characterizations of Peano covering maps is via the uniqueness of homotopy lifting property for all locally path-connected spaces. Regular Peano covering maps over path-connected spaces are shown to be identical with generalized regular covering maps introduced by Fischer and...
