In this work for the first time we enumerate unlabelled maps on orientable genus $g$ surfaces with respect to all homeomorphisms, including both orientation-preserving and orientation-reversing. We show that in the latter case as an…

This contribution summarizes recent work of the authors that combines methods from dynamical systems theory (discrete Painlev\'e equations) and asymptotic analysis of orthogonal polynomial recurrences, to address long-standing questions in…

We compute, for each genus $g\geq 0$, the generating function $L_g\equiv L_g(t;p_1,p_2,\dots)$ of (labelled) bipartite maps on the orientable surface of genus $g$, with control on all face degrees. We exhibit an explicit change of variables…

We present a general bijective approach to planar hypermaps with two main results. First we obtain unified bijections for all classes of maps or hypermaps defined by face-degree constraints and girth constraints. To any such class we…

The problem of map enumeration concerns counting connected spatial graphs, with a specified number $j$ of vertices, that can be embedded in a compact surface of genus $g$ in such a way that its complement yields a cellular decomposition of…

A $B$-tree is a type of search tree where every node (except possibly for the root) contains between $m$ and $2m$ keys for some positive integer $m$, and all leaves have the same distance to the root. We study sequences of $B$-trees that…

We prove that a uniform rooted plane map with n edges converges in distribution after a suitable normalization to the Brownian map for the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. A recent bijection due to Ambj{\o}rn and Budd allows to derive this result…

Motivated by the bijection between Schnyder labelings of a plane triangulation and partitions of its inner edges into three trees, we look for binary labelings for quadrangulations (whose edges can be partitioned into two trees). Our…

We study the geometry of a random unicellular map which is uniformly distributed on the set of all unicellular maps whose genus size is proportional to the number of edges of the map. We prove that the distance between two uniformly…

Generalized Tamari intervals have been recently introduced by Pr\'eville-Ratelle and Viennot, and have been proved to be in bijection with (rooted planar) non-separable maps by Fang and Pr\'eville-Ratelle. We present two new bijections…

We present a bijection between permutation matrices and descending plane partitions without special parts, which respects the quadruple of statistics considered by Behrend, Di Francesco and Zinn--Justin. This bijection involves the…

The enumeration of linear $\lambda$-terms has attracted quite some attention recently, partly due to their link to combinatorial maps. Zeilberger and Giorgetti (2015) gave a recursive bijection between planar linear normal $\lambda$-terms…

We present a bijection between some quadrangular dissections of an hexagon and unrooted binary trees, with interesting consequences for enumeration, mesh compression and graph sampling. Our bijection yields an efficient uniform random…

Triangulations of the 5-gon with no separating triangle nor quadrangle, so called 5c-triangulations, are a planar map family closely related to 5-connected planar triangulations. We show that 5c-triangulations are in bijection with…

The subject of pattern avoiding permutations has its roots in computer science, namely in the problem of sorting a permutation through a stack. A formula for the number of permutations of length n that can be sorted by passing it twice…

The Carrell-Chapuy recurrence formulas dramatically improve the efficiency of counting orientable rooted maps by genus, either by number of edges alone or by number of edges and vertices. This paper presents an implementation of these…

A planar stuffed map is an embedding of a graph into the 2-sphere $S^{2}$, considered up to orientation-preserving homeomorphisms, such that the complement of the graph is a collection of disjoint topologically connected components that are…
