Galois quotients of metric graphs and invariant linear systems
Abstract
For a map between metric graphs and an isometric action on by finite group , is a -Galois covering on if is a morphism, the degree of coincides with the order of and induces a transitive action on every fibre. We prove that for a metric graph with an isometric action by finite group , there exists a rational map, from to a tropical projective space, which induces a -Galois covering on the image. By using this fact, we also prove that for a hyperelliptic metric graph without one valent points and with genus at least two, the invariant linear system of the hyperelliptic involution of the canonical linear system, the complete linear system associated to the canonical divisor, induces an -Galois covering on a tree. This is an analogy of the fact that a compact Riemann surface is hyperelliptic if and only if the canonical map, the rational map induced by the canonical linear system, is a double covering on a projective line .
