    Geometric structures on toroidal maps and elliptic curves (English)
    0 references
    With every map on a surface there is an associated geometric structure (spherical, Euclidean, or hyperbolic) on the surface. A surface of genus \(>1\) always carries a hyperbolic structure, but the structure on a torus can be either Euclidean or hyperbolic. The authors study the toroidal maps which have a Euclidean structure, both from the viewpoint of graph embeddings and of elliptic curves.
