چکیده

Regular maps on non-orientable surfaces are considered with particular reference to the properties of inner reflectors, corresponding to symmetries of the 2-fold smooth orientable covering which project onto local reflections of the map itself. An example is given where no inner reflector is induced by an involution, and the existence of such involutions is related to questions of symmetry of coset diagrams for the symmetry group of the map.

Regular Maps on Non-orientable Surfaces

It is well known that regular maps exist on the projective plane but not on the Klein bottle, nor the non-orientable surface of genus 3. In this paper several infinite families of regular maps are constructed to show that such maps exist on non-odentable surfaces of over 77 per cent of all possible genera. Mathematics Subject Classification (1991): 05C25.

The genera, reflexibility and simplicity of regular maps

This paper uses combinatorial group theory to help answer some longstanding questions about the genera of orientable surfaces that carry particular kinds of regular maps. By classifying all orientably-regular maps whose automorphism group has order coprime to g − 1, where g is the genus, all orientably-regular maps of genus p+1 for p prime are determined. As a consequence, it is shown that orie...

Determination of all Regular Maps of Small Genus

Complete lists are given of all reflexible orientable regular maps of genus 2 to 15, all non-orientable regular maps of genus 4 to 30, and all (orientable) rotary but chiral (irreflexible) maps of genus 2 to 15 inclusive. On each list the maps are classified according to genus and type (viz [ p, q] where every face is incident with p edges and every vertex is incident with q edges). The complet...

Regular maps and hypermaps of Euler characteristic -1 to -200

This paper describes the determination of all orientably-regular maps and hypermaps of genus 2 to 101, and all non-orientable regular maps and hypermaps of genus 3 to 202. It extends the lists obtained by Conder and Dobcsányi (2001) of all such maps of Euler characteristic −1 to −28, and corrects errors made in those lists for the vertexor face-multiplicities of 14 ‘cantankerous’ non-orientable...

Finite Edge-transitive Cayley Graphs and Rotary Cayley Maps

This paper aims to develop a theory for studying Cayley graphs, especially for those with a high degree of symmetry. The theory consists of analysing several types of basic Cayley graphs (normal, bi-normal, and corefree), and analysing several operations of Cayley graphs (core quotient, normal quotient, and imprimitive quotient). It provides methods for constructing and characterising various c...
