We describe a procedure for constructing formal normal forms of holomorphic maps with a hypersurface of fixed points, and we apply it to obtain a complete list of formal normal forms for 2-dimensional holomorphic maps tangential to a curve…
A matchstick graph is a planar unit-distance graph. We call it \emph{4-regular} if every vertex has degree 4. While examples of 4-regular matchstick graphs with fewer than 63 vertices are known only for $n \in \{52, 54, 57, 60\}$, we prove…
The face pairing graph of a 3-manifold triangulation is a 4-valent graph denoting which tetrahedron faces are identified with which others. We present a series of properties that must be satisfied by the face pairing graph of a closed…
A facial unique-maximum coloring of a plane graph is a vertex coloring where on each face $\alpha$ the maximal color appears exactly once on the vertices of $\alpha$. If the coloring is required to be proper, then the upper bound for the…
We prove that every $n$-vertex complete simple topological graph generates at least $\Omega(n)$ pairwise disjoint $4$-faces. This improves upon a recent result by Hubard and Suk. As an immediate corollary, every $n$-vertex complete simple…
We address the enumeration of planar 4-valent maps equipped with an Eulerian orientation by two different methods, and compare the solutions we thus obtain. With the first method we enumerate these orientations as well as a restricted class…
We consider the problem of enumerating d-irreducible maps, i.e. planar maps whose all cycles have length at least d, and such that any cycle of length d is the boundary of a face of degree d. We develop two approaches in parallel: the…
We study bipartite maps on the plane with one infinite face and one face of perimeter 2. At first we consider the problem of their enumeration an then study the connection between the combinatorial structure of a map and the degree of its…
A $(3, 6)$-fullerene is a cubic planar graph whose faces all have 3 or 6 sides. We give an exact enumeration of $(3, 6)$-fullerenes with $V$ vertices. We also enumerate $(3, 6)$-fullerenes with mirror symmetry, with 3-fold rotational…
We give two examples of surfaces with canonical map of degree 4 onto a canonical surface.
In this article we describe an algorithm that can be applied for the generation of various classes of maps on orientable surfaces. It uses existing generators for abstract graphs and combines them with an efficient embedding and isomorphism…
The automorphisms of all 4-dimensional, real Lie Algebras are presented in a comprehensive way. Their action on the space of $4\times 4$, real, symmetric and positive definite, matrices, defines equivalence classes which are used for the…
In this paper, we prove effective estimates for the number of exceptional values and the totally ramified value number for the Gauss map of pseudo-algebraic minimal surfaces in Euclidean four-space and give a kind of unicity theorem.
As a generalization of polyominoes we consider edge-to-edge connected nonoverlapping unions of regular $k$-gons. For $n\le 4$ we determine formulas for the number $a_k(n)$ of generalized polyominoes consisting of $n$ regular $k$-gons.…
This paper addresses the enumeration of rooted and unrooted hypermaps of a given genus. For rooted hypermaps the enumeration method consists of considering the more general family of multirooted hypermaps, in which darts other than the root…
We investigate 1-factorisations in which the 2-regular graphs that occur as the union of a pair of 1-factors appear an equal number of times across the unions of all pairs of 1-factors in the 1-factorisation. We call such 1-factorisations…
The second part of the paper is devoted to enumeration of $r$-regular toroidal maps up to all homeomorphisms of the torus (unsensed maps). We describe in detail the periodic orientation reversing homeomorphisms of the torus which turn out…
We shall present an algorithm for determining whether or not a given planar graph H can ever be a subgraph of a 4-regular planar graph. The algorithm has running time O(|H|^{2.5}) and can be used to find an explicit 4-regular planar graph G…
We classify non-reductive four-dimensional homogeneous conformally Einstein manifolds.
The Four Colour Theorem asserts that the vertices of every plane graph can be properly coloured with four colors. Fabrici and G\"oring conjectured the following stronger statement to also hold: the vertices of every plane graph can be…
