Abstract

In this article, we construct algebraic equations for a curve C and a map f to an elliptic curve E, with pre-specified branching data. We do this by determining certain relations that the periods of C and E must satisfy and use these relations to approximate the coefficients to high precision. We then conjecture which algebraic numbers the coefficients are, and then we prove this conjecture to be correct.
