The genera, reflexibility and simplicity of regular maps

Marston Conder, Jozef Širáň, Thomas Tucker (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

This paper uses combinatorial group theory to help answer some long-standing 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 orientable surfaces of infinitely many genera carry no regular map that is chiral (irreflexible), and that orientable...
