Abstract
A branched covering space is a non-constant holomorphism f from a Riemann surface X to a Riemann surface Y. For almost all points x in X there exists an open set U in X containing x such that f restricts to a homeomorphism from U to f(U). However if for some x in X no such set U exists, then f is said to branch above f(x). Branched covering spaces of elliptic curves that branch only above a single point are studied in this thesis. It turns out that such spaces exist from a topological perspective and that it is possible to give an explicit example with algebraic methods. Furthermore a family of branched covering spaces of the discriminant 4a^3+27b^2=1 is analysed.
