Counting rooted 4-regular unicursal planar maps

A map is 4-regular unicursal if all its vertices are 4-valent except two odd-valent vertices. This paper investigates the number of rooted 4-regular unicursal planar maps and presents some formulae for such maps with four parameters: the number of edges, the number of inner faces and the valencies o...

Zusammenfassung:A map is 4-regular unicursal if all its vertices are 4-valent except two odd-valent vertices. This paper investigates the number of rooted 4-regular unicursal planar maps and presents some formulae for such maps with four parameters: the number of edges, the number of inner faces and the valencies of the two odd vertices.
