We consider the problem of computing the distance-dependent two-point function of general planar maps and hypermaps, i.e. the problem of counting such maps with two marked points at a prescribed distance. The maps considered here may have…
The study of bipartite maps (or Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants) is closely connected with geometry, mathematical physics and free probability. Here we study these objects from their permutation factorization formulation using a novel…

Recently we introduced the hypergraph matrix model (HMM), a Hermitian matrix model generalizing the classical Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). In this model the Gaussians of the GUE, whose moments count partitions of finite sets into pairs,…
We investigate a generalization of stacks that we call $\mathcal{C}$-machines. We show how this viewpoint rapidly leads to functional equations for the classes of permutations that $\mathcal{C}$-machines generate, and how these systems of…
We provide the first solution to the problem of counting rooted 3-connected bipartite planar maps. Our starting point is the enumeration of bicoloured planar maps according to the number of edges and monochromatic edges, following Bernardi…

We present applications of rectangular matrix models to various combinatorial problems, among which the enumeration of face-bicolored graphs with prescribed vertex degrees, and vertex-tricolored triangulations. We also mention possible…
We consider the tiling generating functions of semi-hexagons and quartered hexagons with dents on their sides. In general, there are no simple product formulas for these generating functions. However, we show that the modification in the…
In this paper, we introduce the generating functions of partition sequences. Partition sequences have a one-to-one correspondence with partitions. Therefore, the generating function has no multiplicity and appears meaningless initially.…
We show that the 4-variable generating function of certain orientation related parameters of an ordered oriented matroid is the evaluation at (x + u, y+v) of its Tutte polynomial. This evaluation contains as special cases the counting of…
A one-to-one correspondence is proved between the N-rooted ribbon graphs, or maps, with e edges and the (e-N+1)-loop Feynman diagrams of a certain quantum field theory. This result is used to obtain explicit expressions and relations for…
Classical hypergeometric functions are well-known to play an important role in arithmetic algebraic geometry. These functions offer solutions to ordinary differential equations, and special cases of such solutions are periods of…
We introduce a systematic approach to express generating functions for the enumeration of maps on surfaces of high genus in terms of a single generating function relevant to planar surfaces. Central to this work is the comparison of two…
We derive two multivariate generating functions for three-dimensional Young diagrams (also called plane partitions). The variables correspond to a colouring of the boxes according to a finite Abelian subgroup G of SO(3). We use the vertex…
Recently, the concept of generating function has been employed in one-loop reduction. For one-loop integrals encompassing arbitrary tensor ranks and higher-pole contributions, the generating function can be decomposed into a tensor part and…
Fold functions are a general mechanism for computing over recursive data structures. First-order folds compute results bottom-up. With higher-order folds, computations that inherit attributes from above can also be expressed. In this paper,…
