Abstract
We consider a random planar map which is uniformly distributed over the class of all rooted q-angulations with n faces. We let be the vertex set of , which is equipped with the graph distance . Both when is an even integer and when q=3, there exists a positive constant such that the rescaled metric spaces converge in distribution in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense, toward a universal limit called the Brownian map. The particular case of triangulations solves a question of Schramm.
