Abstract:This work is devoted to the study of the typical structure of a random map. Maps are planar graphs embedded in the plane. We investigate the degree sequences of random maps from families of a certain type, which, among others, includes fundamental map classes like those of biconnected maps, 3-connected maps, and triangulations. In particular, we develop a general framework that allows us to derive relations and exact asymptotic expressions for the expected number of vertices of degree k in random maps from the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
