When is a local homeomorphism a semicovering map?
In a previous post “What is a Semicovering Map?,” I gave an introduction to semicovering maps. A semicovering is a slight generalization of covering map that becomes particularly relevant when you’re dealing with locally complicated spaces. In particular, a semicovering … Continue reading
What is a semicovering map?
I’ve heard twice in the past year from folks who study non-Archimedian geometry and have found connections to “semicoverings,” which are a generalization of covering maps used in wild topology. The questions I received had me revisiting the basics and … Continue reading
