Abstract:
We prove that if , a generic Riemann surface of genus 1 admits a meromorphic function (i.e., an analytic branched cover of ) of degree such that every branch point has multiplicity and the monodromy group is the alternating group . To prove this theorem, we construct a Hurwitz space and show that it maps (generically) onto the genus one moduli space.
