Enumerative Properties of Rooted Circuit Maps

In 1966, Barnette introduced a set of graphs, called circuit graphs, which are obtained from 3-connected planar graphs by deleting a vertex. Circuit graphs and 3-connected planar graphs share many interesting properties which are not satisfied by general 2-connected planar graphs. Circuit graphs have nice closure properties which make them easier to deal with than 3-connected planar graphs for studying some graph-theoretic properties. In this paper, we study some enumerative properties of circuit graphs. For enumeration purpose, we define rooted circuit maps and compare the number of rooted circuit maps with those of rooted 2-connected planar maps and rooted 3-connected planar maps.     

The structure of unicellular maps, and a connection between maps of positive genus and planar labelled trees

A unicellular map is a map which has only one face. We give a bijection between a dominant subset of rooted unicellular maps of given genus and a set of rooted plane trees with distinguished vertices. The bijection applies as well to the case of labelled unicellular maps, which are related to all rooted maps by Marcus and Schaeffer’s bijection. This gives an immediate derivation of the asymptotic number of unicellular maps of given genus, and a simple bijective proof of a formula of Lehman and Walsh on the number of triangulations with one vertex. From the labelled case, we deduce an expression of the asymptotic number of maps of genus g with n edges involving the ISE random measure, and an explicit characterization of the limiting profile and radius of random bipartite quadrangulations of genus g in terms of the ISE.     

Enumeration of multi-colored rooted maps

We present a study of n-colored rooted maps in orientable and locally orientable surfaces. As far as we know, no work on these maps has yet been published. We give a system of n functional equations satisfied by n-colored orientable rooted maps regardless of genus and with respect to edges and vertices. We exhibit the solution of this system as a vector where each component has a continued fraction form and we deduce a new equation generalizing the Dyck equation for rooted planar trees. Similar results are shown for n-colored rooted maps in locally orientable surfaces.

Enumeration of loopless maps on the projective plane

In this paper we study the rooted loopless maps on the sphere and the projective plane with the valency of root-face and the number of edges as parameters. Explicit expression of enumerating function is obtained for such maps on the sphere and the projective plane. A parametric expression of the generating function is obtained for such maps on the projective plane, from which asymptotic evaluations are derived.

The number of nonseparable maps on the projective plane

In this paper, we study the rooted nonseparable maps on the sphere and the projective plane with the valency of root-face and the number of edges as parameters. Explicit expression of enumerating functions are obtained for such maps on the sphere and the projective plane. A parametric expression of the generating function is obtained for such maps on the projective plane, from which asymptotic evaluations are derived. Moreover, if the number of edges is sufficiently large, then almost all nonseparable maps on the projective plane are not triangulation.     

Counting unrooted maps on the plane

A planar map is a 2-cell embedding of a connected planar graph, loops and parallel edges allowed, on the sphere. A plane map is a planar map with a distinguished outside (“infinite”) face. An unrooted map is an equivalence class of maps under orientation-preserving homeomorphism, and a rooted map is a map with a distinguished oriented edge. Previously we obtained formulae for the number of unrooted planar n-edge maps of various classes, including all maps, non-separable maps, eulerian maps and loopless maps. In this article, using the same technique we obtain closed formulae for counting unrooted plane maps of all these classes and their duals. The corresponding formulae for rooted maps are known to be all sum-free; the formulae that we obtain for unrooted maps contain only a sum over the divisors of n. We count also unrooted two-vertex plane maps.     

Counting rooted maps by Genus. I

Using a combinatorial equivalent for maps, we take the first census of maps on orientable surfaces of arbitrary genus. We generalize to higher genus Tutte's recursion formula for counting slicings, and thus obtain an algorithm for counting rooted maps by genus, number of edges, and number of vertices. We then solve a special case of this recursion formula, to count slicngs with one face by genus. This leads to an explicit formula which counts rooted maps with one face by genus and number of edges.     

ENUMERATION OF ROOTED VERTEX NON-SEPARABLE PLANAR MAPS

In a rooted planar map, the rooted vertex is said to be non-separable if the vertex onthe boundary of the outer face as an induced graph is not a cut-vertex. In this paper, the author derives a functional equation satisfied by the enumeratingfuuction of rooted vertex non-separable planar maps dependent on the edge number and thenumber of the edges on the outer face boundary, finds a parametric expression of itssolution, and obtains an explicit formula for the function. Particularly, the number of rooted vertex non-separable maps only replying on theedge number and that of rooted vertex non-separable tree-like maps defined in [4] accordingto the two indices, the edge number and the number of the edges on the outer face boundary,or only one index, the edge number, are also determined.

Enumeration on Nonseparable Planar Maps

This paper provides some functional equations satisfied by the generating functions for nonseparable rooted planar maps with the valency of root-vertex, the number of edges and the valency of root-faces of the maps as three parameters. But the solutions of these equations can only be obtained indirectly by considering some relations between nonseparable and general rooted planar maps. One of them is an answer to the open problem 6.1 in Liu (1983, Comb. Optim. CORR83-26, University of Waterloo).     

Chromatic sums of nonseparable simple maps on the plane

In this paper we study the chromatic sum functions for rooted nonseparable simple maps on the plane. The chromatic sum function equation for such maps is obtained. The enumerating function equation of such maps is derived by the chromatic sum equation of such maps. From the chromatic sum equation of such maps, the enumerating function equation of rooted nonseparable simple bipartite maps on the plane is also derived.     

The Semi-Arc Automorphism Group of a Graph with Application to Map Enumeration

A map is a connected topological graph cellularly embedded in a surface. For a given graph Γ, its genus distribution of rooted maps and embeddings on orientable and non-orientable surfaces are separately investigated by many researchers. By introducing the concept of a semi-arc automorphism group of a graph and classifying all its embeddings under the action of its semi-arc automorphism group, we find the relations between its genus distribution of rooted maps and genus distribution of embeddings on orientable and non-orientable surfaces, and give some new formulas for the number of rooted maps on a given orientable surface with underlying graph a bouquet of cycles B_n, a closed-end ladder L_n or a Ringel ladder R_n. A general scheme for enumerating unrooted maps on surfaces(orientable or non-orientable) with a given underlying graph is established. Using this scheme, we obtained the closed formulas for the numbers of non-isomorphic maps on orientable or non-orientable surfaces with an underlying bouquet B_n in this paper.     

A census of boundary cubic rooted planar maps

In this paper, boundary cubic rooted planar maps are investigated and exact enumerative formulae are given. First, an enumerative formula for boundary cubic inner-forest maps with the size (number of edges) as a parameter is derived. For the special case of boundary cubic inner-tree maps, a simple formula with two parameters is presented. Further, according to the duality, a corresponding result for outer-planar maps is obtained. Finally, some results for boundary cubic planar maps and general planar maps are obtained. Furthermore, two known Tutte's formulae are easily deduced in the paper.
