Abstract

Consider triangulations of RP2\mathbb R P^2 whose all vertices have valency six except three vertices of valency 44. In this chapter we prove that the number f(n)f(n) of such triangulations with no more than nn triangles grows as Cn2+O(n3/2)C\cdot n^2+ O(n^{3/2}) where C=1203L(π3)ζ1(4)ζ(Eis,2)0.2087432125056015...C = \frac{1}{20} \sqrt{3} \cdot L( \frac{\pi}{3} ) \zeta^{-1}(4) \zeta(Eis, 2) \approx 0.2087432125056015..., where LL is the Lobachevsky function and ζ(Eis,2)=(a,b)Z201a+bω24\zeta(Eis,2) =\sum\limits_{(a,b)\in\mathbb Z^2\setminus 0}{\frac{1}{|a+b\omega^2|^4}}, and ω6=1\omega^6=1.
