Partial duality is a duality of ribbon graphs relative to a subset of their edges generalizing the classical Euler-Poincare duality. This operation often changes the genus. Recently J.L.Gross, T.Mansour, and T.W.Tucker formulated a…

In 2009, Chmutov introduced the partial-duality for a ribbon graph $G$. Recently, Gross, Mansour and Tucker enumerated all possible partial-duals of $G$ by genus and introduced the partial-dual genus polynomial of a ribbon graph $G.$ This…

Recently, Chmutov introduced the partial duality of ribbon graphs, which can be regarded as a generalization of the classical Euler-Poincar\'e duality. The partial-dual genus polynomial $^\partial\varepsilon_G(z)$ is an enumeration of the…

The geometric dual of a cellularly embedded graph is a fundamental concept in graph theory and also appears in many other branches of mathematics. The partial dual is an essential generalization which can be obtained by forming the…

In this paper, we extend the recently introduced concept of partially dual ribbon graphs to graphs. We then go on to characterize partial duality of graphs in terms of bijections between edge sets of corresponding graphs. This result…

We consider two operations on an edge of an embedded graph (or equivalently a ribbon graph): giving a half-twist to the edge and taking the partial dual with respect to the edge. These two operations give rise to an action of S_3^{|E(G)|},…
