In [14] we found the large genus asymptotics of Hurwitz numbers for the Riemann sphere with a fixed number of general profiles and some (2,1^{d-2}) profiles. In this paper, motivated from [3], we generalize these results to Hurwitz numbers…

We study double Hurwitz numbers in genus zero counting the number of covers $\CP^1\to\CP^1$ with two branching points with a given branching behavior. By the recent result due to Goulden, Jackson and Vakil, these numbers are piecewise…
