ON THE VERTEX PARTITION EQUATION OF ROOTED LOOPLESS PLANAR MAPS

摘要

This paper provides a functional equation astisfied by the generating function for enumerating rooted loopless planar maps with vertex partition. A kind of applications in enumerating, by providing explicit formulae, a type of rooted loopless planar maps with the maximum valency of vertices given are described. Meanwhile, the functional equation for enumerating rooted loopless planar maps (connected) with the edge number and the valency of root-vertex as the parameters is also derived directly.
