Conformal branched cover from the hyperbolic plane to the euclidean plane The euclidean plane can conformally branch cover the sphere. This is witnessed by the tiled Peirce quincuncial projection. ![]( Is there likewise a conformal branched covering map from the hyperbolic plane to the euclidean plane? When I say conformal branch covering map, I mean a branch covering map that is conformal everywhere except at the branching points. (Ideally, each branch point should have degree two.)

Yes, there is. Here is a geometric construction (which could easily be visualized if one wants to do so): Let $S$ be a square (i.e., a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides and 4 equal angles) in the hyperbolic plane with angles of $\pi/4$, and let $f:S \to [0,1]^2$ be the conformal map of $S$ to the unit square, mapping vertices to vertices. Now the map $f$ can be extended by reflection to a map of the hyperbolic plane onto the Euclidean plane. The resulting map will have branch points of degree two over all points in the integer lattice, since it is angle-doubling at those points.
