  • Abstract
    A construction for the classifying spaces for branched coverings with branch set a codimension 2 submanifold is given by Brand (1978, 1980). Using this result as a first step we inductively construct universal branched coverings with branch set a stratified set. We also give some of the lower homotopy groups of the classifying spaces which correspond to branched coverings of spheres.
